About Owen’s Drilling

Trusted Drilling Expertise Since 1979

Built on Experience

Experience matters in drilling. Ground conditions change. Site access can be challenging. Projects often come with technical requirements, environmental considerations, and demanding schedules.

Since 1979, Owen’s Drilling has worked in a wide range of geological conditions and project environments across Western Canada. This experience allows our team to approach each project with practical knowledge, proven methods, and a focus on delivering reliable results.

Whether drilling a residential water well, supporting a mining operation, or assisting with a geotechnical investigation, our goal is always the same: provide the right solution for the project.
