The PortaDrill is a rugged, highly portable air/water/mud injection rotary drill, which has been designed to drill
water wells (200 ft.). The PortaDrill is the result of 10 years of practical experience in confined and remote
location water well drilling.
PortaDrill is a refined evolution of traditionally available small scale drilling systems. The PortaDrill combines
all of the features necessary for rapid, cost effective well and bore hole drilling under even the most
challenging conditions.
In many areas throughout the world, it remains extremely difficult if not (i.e. location impossible) to transport
to a location, drilling equipment necessary to drill water wells. Inadequate or nonexistent roads prevent
conventional, heavy truck mounted water well drilling equipment, from reaching the desired location.
Because the substantial roads required to sustain such conventional drill rigs and truck mounted equipment are
not available in many areas in underdeveloped and third world countries, large areas throughout the world are
effectively isolated and non-feasible from equipment necessary to drill water wells. A small, lightweight,
easily portable yet effective drilling system is needed that would allow water wells to be drilled in currently
isolated areas.
