What Is a Water Bore? A Comprehensive Guide by Aqua Bore Drilling

A water bore isn’t just a practical investment—it’s a sustainable solution that transforms how you access water.” – Harry, Aqua Bore Drilling

What Is a Water Bore?

A water bore is a deep hole drilled into the ground to access underground aquifers for groundwater. The water is then pumped to the surface, offering a reliable supply for irrigation, livestock, and even household use.

How Do Water Bores Work?

1. Drilling: A precise borehole is created to reach the aquifer.
2. Casing Installation: A casing prevents the hole from collapsing and keeps the water clean.
3. Pump Setup: A pumping system transports water to the surface.

For a detailed overview of the process, visit our How It Works page.

Types of Water Bores

Shallow Bores

• Tap into aquifers close to the surface.
• Ideal for gardens, small-scale irrigation, and domestic purposes.

Deep Production Bores

• Access water from aquifers deeper underground.
• Suitable for large-scale agricultural or industrial applications.

Artesian Bores

• Utilise natural pressure in the aquifer to bring water to the surface without pumping.
• Common in regions with significant underground pressure.
