With a thriving drilling tools business as well as some of the best drilling plant out there, Dando are well placed to observe trends in the worldwide non-oil and gas mobile drilling market.The last two years have seen the most hostile economic conditions in living memory with sales of both plant and consumable sales feeling the effect of a global recession..

Now though, it seems as if things are taking a far more positive hue. In all sectors of the drilling market, and in many regions, it is clear that confidence, though still fragile, is returning.

Dando have directly experienced the improved conditions in our African, Middle Eastern, Asian, British and European markets.

A key indicator of expanding drilling capacity is the demand for 'tubular' consumables such as drill rods and casing.Dando are supplying thousands of metres of drill rod to customers worldwide for use in the water well, mineral exploration and geotechnical industries.
