From saving the day in difficult locations to demonstrating its benefits in the geothermal sector, the Wellmaster flexible rising main system is fast becoming the ‘go to’ solution for borehole experts.
The simplicity of its ‘steel on a reel’ approach and the fact it is up to 75% lighter than equivalent traditional steel risers, enables it to be transported more easily and cheaply.
Geoquip has partnered with international safe water charity Village Water to help reach more people with basic but life-changing facilities.
Village Water is a small team of 7 based in Shropshire. We’ve been working with local partners in Zambia since 2004 and Mozambique since 2016 to help improve access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education (WASH) for families living in rural, remote and low-income areas, and we’ve reached over 850,000 people since we began.
As the spring weather continues to slowly warm up, it’s traditionally the time when boreholes start to be put back into action ready to provide irrigation and water supplies.
From golf courses to farms, manufacturers to garden centres – plenty of organisations rely on their boreholes to keep water flowing throughout the dryer months of the year.

Increasing demand for a move towards renewable energy is seeing a rise in the number of geothermal heating installations across both commercial and domestic markets.
Savings of up to 80% compared to traditional fossil fuels and the ability to significantly reduce CO2 emissions are among the benefits, together with the financial support available from Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) payments.
However, with costs for installing a typical ground source heat pump system in an average home standing at around £14,000-£19,000*, it pays to check that certain steps are in place to help achieve maximum advantage...
