Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about borehole drilling, water well drilling in the UK public sector.
What is a drilling tender?
A drilling tender covers borehole and water-well drilling on public sector sites, drilling for water supply, irrigation or groundwater abstraction, or drilling carried out to support ground investigation ahead of construction. Buyers let it as a standalone contract or as part of a wider project.
Who buys drilling services in the public sector?
Universities, water companies and local councils commission borehole and water-well drilling for irrigation, water supply and groundwater abstraction projects. Estate and grounds teams also let this work directly to specialist drilling contractors.
What kind of work is included in a drilling contract?
Drilling contracts cover sinking boreholes and water wells, installing pumps to abstract groundwater, and drilling linked to irrigation systems for sports pitches and grounds. Some contracts combine drilling with pump installation and pipework connection as one package.
How are drilling contracts procured?
Drilling is let as a standalone specialist works contract, or as a sub-contract package within a wider ground investigation, construction or grounds maintenance project. Some buyers appoint drilling specialists through an approved framework rather than tendering each job separately.
