Igne

Igne provides specialist drilling and subsurface services for projects in Chester-le-Street and across the UK. The business brings together Allied Exploration & Geotechnics and other established ground-investigation and drilling specialists under one trading identity.

Its borehole work covers private, commercial, industrial and agricultural water supplies, as well as geothermal energy, groundwater monitoring and dewatering. Services can begin with hydrogeological assessment, feasibility work and licensing support, then continue through drilling, lining, installation, development and testing.

Igne also offers water analysis and treatment, test pumping, borehole maintenance, servicing and repairs. For more complex requirements, its teams undertake monitoring boreholes, large-diameter and deep drilling, specialist drilling methods, instrumentation and long-term monitoring.

The wider organisation supports construction, infrastructure, utilities, renewable energy, manufacturing, agriculture, horticulture, local authorities and public-sector clients. Experienced teams, specialist equipment and low-ground-pressure plant help Igne work in challenging, restricted or environmentally sensitive conditions.

Whether you need an independent water supply, a geothermal installation or reliable subsurface information for a development, Igne offers an integrated route from investigation and design through to delivery and ongoing support.
