Long Neck Creek Holdings is a unique water well drilling company based in Chapman Valley servicing the Northern Goldfields, Pilbara, Gascoyne and Midwest regions of WA.

Ian Pike has had over 25 years’ experience of both exploration and water well drilling. Ian has attained his class 1 drilling licence issued by Australia Drilling Industry and certificate of achievement on mud techniques and test training with Australian Drilling Industry Association and is also a financial member.

Ian operates a trailer mounted RAB drill rig towed by a 6-wheel drive MAN truck which also hosts the air compressor. The RAB drill rig can do water bores to 60 metres and small diameter test holes to 100 metres deep through rock and sand allowing a small footprint for water investigation and rock exploration. This drill rig is also suited to doing monitoring bores and earth electrode holes. Combined with a 400cfm air compressor it has a small footprint and can access most places.

Also in the fleet, there is smaller rig mounted on a 3 tonne CAT excavator to get into the tightest of spots with a height of 2.5 metres and it can work under powerlines and low clearance sites and can go to a depth of 20 metres.

A complete trailer is also set up for bore cleaning, pump testing, windmill repair and maintenance with a large range of detergents and acids available for any situation.
