About Us

Remote Drilling Services (RDS) is a professional, well-equipped and highly mobile core drilling company. It is run by seasoned exploration geologists with extensive experience in field exploration and management of drill contractors. Operations have been undertaken in highly remote areas throughout southern and central Africa.

As a drill contractor, RDS management has a unique understanding of exactly what geoscientists require from their drilling programmes and believe that drilling is about providing the best possible geological information for the client. RDS’s geological knowledge of mineral deposits and associated host-rocks, integrated with the drill team’s technical knowledge, offers a formidable combination in both assessing and solving the technical challenges involved in successful drill programmes.

Projects are serviced through fully equipped operational bases in South Africa and Botswana and the Democratic Republic of Congo, with vehicles and operational equipment to effectively manage and operate drilling projects irrespective of their location in the region.
