Drilling the Well

The rig sets up on the lot, the mast goes up and the bit goes down through the clay and weathered rock into the bedrock below. These are our own rigs on our own jobs around the Upstate.

About well drilling

Water at the Casing

When the bit cuts a fracture that carries water, the well is developed until the water runs clear. The discharge pipe shows what the well is making.

The Crew

The same people drill the well, set the casing and come back for the pump. Here they are at the rig.
