We work on all kinds of sites with our plant being especially capable of traversing the most soft, arduous terrain known to the industry.

All our operations aim to reduce environmental damage.

Innovation

Hydracrat’s philosophy is to design, build and maintain all our own drilling rigs and support vehicles using our specialist in-house team.

The HYCAT, our signature drilling rig, boasts several unique features and is renowned throughout the drilling industry.

Our ability to design our own plant helps define us as a company and sets us apart from most in the drilling industry.

Trust

Hydracrat has worked on an extremely diverse range of projects through its 60+ year history, gaining significant industry experience along the way.

While our capabilities are extensive, we believe honesty is the best policy and will tell you outright if we are not well suited for a project.

Our approach has helped us to develop healthy, long-standing relationships with our existing clients.
