Complete turnkey drilling rigs — water bore-well, blast-hole, DTH, top-hammer and rotary-percussion — engineered for African geological conditions, water tables, mining depths and remote-site mobility. Crawler-mounted, truck-mounted and skid-mounted configurations from 100 m to 800+ m drilling depth.
From site survey to a fully-developed, tested borehole — a 6-stage drilling process delivering water-well, mining or geotechnical bore-holes engineered for African conditions.
Borehole location, geological strata assessment, water table depth, target diameter and final use determined
Crawler / truck / skid rig mobilised to site, jacks levelled, mast erected, compressor & mud pump positioned
DTH / rotary / top-hammer drilling with compressed-air or bentonite-mud circulation; cuttings continuously flushed
PVC / steel casing pipes lowered, gravel-pack & bentonite seal installed, well-screen positioned at aquifer
Compressor / pump development, yield test, water quality sampling, drawdown & recovery testing
Documentation, well-completion report, operator training, AMC & spare-parts contract
From deep African geological expertise to single-source turnkey delivery — six reasons our clients keep coming back.
50+ rigs delivered across Zambia, Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania and more — our engineers understand African geological conditions, water tables and remote-site drilling challenges first-hand.
Complete package: rig, drill string, accessories, CIF freight, site commissioning and operator training from one supplier — no coordination between multiple vendors.
ISO 9001 manufacturing, CE-marked equipment, API drill-string compliance — at Indian manufacturing costs 30–50% below European and Chinese equivalents.
Comprehensive spare-parts kits shipped with every rig, plus Annual Maintenance Contracts with Vezora service teams based across Africa for fast on-site support.
Every rig is specified for your exact project — geology report, target depth, hole diameter, formation hardness and groundwater conditions all inform the final rig selection.
Factory training for operators and mechanics before despatch, plus on-site training during commissioning — your team is fully competent and productive from day one.
Our turnkey drilling rig package covers the complete drilling system — rig with mast and rotary head, on-board compressor or mud pump, drill rods, drilling tools (DTH hammer, bits, drag tools), casing pipes and complete operating tool kit.
Equipment is pre-assembled, performance-tested and inspected at our partner facility before container shipment to Africa, where our engineers handle commissioning, on-site drilling demonstration and operator training.
Granite, limestone, sandstone, basalt, weathered & fractured rock — our rigs are specified for the harder African geology, not soft European sediments. Tested in Zambia, Kenya, Ghana & Tanzania.
Crawler-mounted for remote off-road sites, truck-mounted for fast-mobilisation projects, skid-mounted for fixed installations — choose what suits your project mobility & transport infrastructure.
Heavy-duty pull-down (up to 18 ton) and high rotation torque (up to 18,000 Nm) handle hard-rock conditions where smaller rigs stall. More productive metres per shift.
Self-contained — no external compressor truck needed. On-board diesel compressor (up to 35 m³/min @ 25 bar) plus mud pump option for switching between air & mud drilling on the same hole.
Switch between DTH, rotary-percussion, top-hammer and mud rotary on the same rig — adapt to changing geological strata in a single borehole.
Standardised wear parts (DTH hammer pistons, bits, rod threads, hydraulic seals) stocked locally through Vezora Spare Parts. AMC & on-site service teams across Africa.

* Specifications are indicative. Final depth/diameter capability depends on geological conditions, drill-rod size selected and end-use application.
Vezora drilling rigs adapt to multiple methods and applications — switch between water-well drilling, blast-hole production, mineral exploration and geotechnical investigation on the same equipment.
Village, agricultural, municipal & industrial water-supply boreholes, 100 m–600 m depth.
Production blast-holes for open-pit mining & quarrying — 4"–6.5" diameter.
Reverse-circulation (RC) and rotary exploration drilling for sampling & resource definition.
Soil investigation, foundation piling, micropiles & rock-anchor installation for civil works.
Geothermal heat-exchange, dewatering wells, environmental monitoring boreholes.
From municipal water utilities to mining majors, exploration companies and water-bore contractors — Vezora drilling rigs serve every African drilling sector.

Common questions about drilling rig supply, specifications, and support services across Africa.
Vezora supplies rotary drilling rigs, DTH (Down-The-Hole) hammer rigs, top-hammer drill rigs, water well drilling rigs, blast hole drilling rigs, core drilling rigs for mineral exploration, and auger drilling rigs — covering surface and underground mining, water well drilling, and geotechnical applications.
Yes. We supply water well drilling rigs widely used across rural Africa for borehole and water well projects funded by governments, NGOs, and private developers. These rigs are designed for African geological conditions and can drill to depths of 200–600 metres.
Yes. We supply core drilling rigs for mineral exploration in Zambia, Zimbabwe, DRC, Tanzania, and other African mining countries. These rigs are suitable for diamond core drilling for copper, gold, cobalt, and chrome exploration.
Yes. We supply a complete range of drilling consumables including drill bits (tricone, PDC, DTH hammer bits), drill rods and pipes, casing, drill collars, stabilisers, and drilling fluids — available for fast delivery to African mines and drilling contractors.
Our drilling rigs cover a range of depths — from 50m lightweight rigs for geotechnical work to 600m+ heavy-duty rigs for deep water well and mineral exploration drilling. We match the rig specification to your project depth and formation requirements.
We supply drilling rigs and equipment to Zambia, Zimbabwe, DRC, Tanzania, Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Angola, Mozambique, South Africa, and Botswana. We handle all export documentation, freight, and customs clearance to your country.
Yes. Every drilling rig supply includes on-site commissioning and operator training by our technical team. We also offer follow-up training programmes and remote technical support to ensure safe and efficient rig operation.
Yes. We supply blast hole drilling rigs for open-pit mining operations — suitable for copper, coal, chrome, and gold mines across Africa. These are available in various hole diameter ranges and mast heights to match your specific blast design requirements.
We primarily supply new drilling rigs. However, depending on your budget and requirements, we can assist in sourcing certified refurbished rigs with full inspection reports and a service warranty. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
We provide spare parts supply, technical helpline support, on-site maintenance visits, and operator refresher training as after-sales services. We also offer Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC) for clients who require structured ongoing support.
