Western Australia’s Most Trusted Drilling Specialists

At Precision Drilling Australia, we provide the foundational data and infrastructure that power Australia’s mining, civil, and environmental sectors. Based in Helena Valley, WA, we are a “new generation” drilling company, combining decades of traditional industry expertise with the latest in safety technology and high-performance equipment.

Whether you are a junior exploration firm or a global mining giant, we deliver professional, ethical, and reliable drilling services tailored to your project’s unique demands.

Our Story: Filling the Gap

Precision Drilling Australia was born from a simple observation: the WA market was missing a contractor that offered both the high-level compliance of a major firm and the personal, hands-on service of a boutique team.

Founded by Managing Director Mathew Feeney, an industry veteran with over 25 years of experience, Precision Drilling was established in 2020 to service the underserved geotechnical and environmental sectors. Since then, we have grown into a multi-state operator, completing complex programs for industry leaders like BHP, Rio Tinto, and Iluka Resources.

Why Choose Precision Drilling Australia?

We believe that the quality of your results depends on the quality of the people and the gear behind the rig. Here is what sets us apart:

A Safety-First Culture We operate under a comprehensive Safety Management System. By utilising "hands-off" steel handling and remote drilling functionalities, we eliminate line-of-fire hazards to keep our team and your site safe.
State-of-the-Art Fleet We operate a standardised fleet of Hydra Power Scout-V rigs (available in both wheel and track configurations). This standardisation means our crews know their equipment inside out, leading to zero downtime and maximum efficiency.
Local Expertise, Remote Capability While we are proud West Australians, our reach extends across the Northern Territory, South Australia, and beyond. We specialise in operating in the most remote and isolated regions of the country.
Environmental Stewardship We understand the privilege of working on Australian land. We maintain strict environmental protocols to ensure our footprint is minimised and your site is respected.
