rock drilling

Rock Fall is at the forefront of the rock drilling and blasting industry, continually developing new techniques and perfecting existing methods. Its engineers work closely with leading research organisations. The company's plant features the latest technology and is

designed to be containerised for fast and easy mobilisation to sites throughout the world. Versatility is a feature of the drilling towers and deck equipment which can be placed on virtually any jack up, rigid flat-top or modular pontoon - hired locally or supplied by Rock Fall.
Rock Fall's own resources can, if necessary, be supplemented by those of its parent company Royal Boskalis Westminster nv, one of the world's leading maritime contractors.A proven track record, skilled and experienced personnel, modern and versatile equipment and the backing of an international organisation - these are the reasons why Rock Fall is the first choice for rock drilling and blasting in support of civil engineering, offshore and maritime engineering projects.

Precision Work
Over the past decades Rock Fall has encountered some of the world's toughest climatic and environmental conditions - from the rough, cold North Sea to the searing desert heat, from fast-flowing rivers and estuarial currents to water depths of 45m. Rock conditions have varied widely, from substantial layers of glacial till type overburden to the hardest of Scottish and Swedish granite. Rock drilling and blasting work demands strength and tenacity but also precision and skilled engineering. When operating in areas of environmental sensitivity and in confined places, such as alongside quay walls or adjacent to live pipelines, special skills and strict vibration control are necessary.
