Who We Are

Cape Drilling & Exploration is a fifth-generation family business delivering high-performance borehole drilling across South Africa’s toughest geology. We provide reliable solutions for agriculture, civil infrastructure, and renewable energy — with a reputation for succeeding where others fall short.
Cape Drilling & Exploration is a private company led by Deon Moore Snr, alongside his sons Deon Moore Jnr and Ruan Moore.
Our forefathers were a breed of drillers that never quit or run out of ideas or solutions.
With social media and internet, we quickly broaden our knowledge and was not surprised to saw tools basic like our designs for difficult drilling conditions.
We are fortunate that we have the skills to build our own custom drill rigs to solve any drill task.
It’s with great respect that we see still of our grandfathers and father’s boreholes in production as we partake in projects on the same farms for the newer generations.
Loyalty, honesty and basic spot-on quotes is our success through the years, we are humble for every new job and our objective is to service the client’s needs. We take all Health & Safety factors in consideration to protect your property from any drilling dangers that may occur.
