Geothermal drilling is a core part of Teckna Groups activities.
As one of the leading specialist drilling companies operating in the ground source sector we offer a full range of geothermal drilling services to ISO 9001:2008
Teckna Group perform services for the installation of the connection pipe work, manifold systems, flushing of the borehole and connection pipe work, pressure testing of the pipe work and addition of heat loss fluid to the completed system.
Our specialised geothermal drilling rigs are capable of operating in some of the most difficult ground strata by installing temporary steel casing at the same time as drilling the borehole using air, air-flush, water or mud flushing mediums and up to depths of 200m plus. With the right ground strata boreholes can be completed as quickly as 100 to 150m per day quite easily.
Along with our specialised drilling equipment we operate loop installation and grouting equipment brought in from America, this allows the ground source loops to be installed without damage to the loop itself, easily and economically.
Teckna Group’s latest addition to our geothermal drilling equipment is a duplex pump with high water flow and pressure for the cleaning of the borehole during the geothermal drilling process.
All of our equipment is track mounted for quick, easy manoeuverability around the drilling project site and for loading on and off site.
We operate specialised imported mud separation units that keep the area as clean as possible from drill waste and minimise the fresh water used in the geothermal drilling process to ensure the separation of the drilling waste from the drilling water keeping the solids content for disposal off site to a minimum.
As part of our professional installation we operate to all the latest drilling standards, using reputable products sourced from within the UK from MGS.
Teckna Group geothermal drilling and installations comply to the highest standards of materials , workmanship and installation as published by the Ground Source Heat Pump Association, British Drilling Association, the Environment Agency and the Microgeneration Installation Standards which can be found by following the links below.
