With over 50 years of experience ANTS Drilling can offer a diverse range of drilling specialities.

With heavy investment in the best equipment, we are now able to offer a modern fleet of 10 Comacchio Drilling Rigs ranging in size and capability.

Our compact GEO601 and GEO602 rigs can work on sites both small and large but have the capabilities of drilling to depths in excess of 250m when required.

The larger MC1500 and MC3000 machines are perfect for large diameter open loop boreholes or water wells.

Our specialist landfill drilling division has been involved in large scale gas extraction and leachate extraction wells throughout the UK with all of the major waste operators and continues to offer a competitively priced package to suit the clients needs.

ANTS believe in working with industry bodies for continued improvement which is why we are members of the Ground Source Heat Pump Association and the British Drilling Association.
