About Dando
Dando History
It was during this time that Dando became one of the foremost drilling contractors and drilling rig manufacturers in the world. In 1980 the decision was made to cease the contracting operations in favour of manufacturing, with efforts concentrated on the creation of a range of drilling rigs and equipment that became second to none. Dando is active on every continent, with many rig’s working lives stretching into four decades. Applications for Dando equipment include mineral exploration, waterwell drilling, geotechnical investigation and seismic exploration.
The company’s long history has given Dando the opportunity to accumulate a large body of knowledge and expertise in all areas of the drilling industry. This experience enables Dando engineers to advise customers on selection of equipment and on all aspects of drilling operations. In addition to the supply of cable percussion and modern rotary hydraulic drilling rigs, Dando also offer a comprehensive range of ancillary equipment and services such as commissioning, training and project implementation.
