At Western Drilling, we have the tools & drilling methods to capture water that traditional drilling methods may not see. Our latest project in Rio Verde, AZ, proves it. When others say, “there’s no water,” we say, “we’ll get you water.” And we did – by drilling 1,000 feet to reach a dependable supply for a private homeowner!

Project Overview
A homeowner in Rio Verde contacted us needing a dedicated water supply. While water hauling is common in this region, they chose to invest in a long-term solution: a private well.
In contrast to many Arizona wells, this site required us to drill 1,000 feet to tap into a reliable aquifer.

Key Project Details
🔹 Location: Rio Verde, Arizona
🔹 Drill Depth: 1,000 feet
🔹 Rig Used: DR24-SD Drill Rig
🔹 Owner Type: Private Residential
🔹 Drilling Crew: Lead Driller James Mullins, Assistant Coby

Digging Deep — Literally!
While most wells in Arizona reach water at around 300-700 feet, Rio Verde’s groundwater lies much deeper. Drilling to 1,000 feet is no small task – but with the right tools and team, it’s a challenge we welcome.
Using our powerful DR24-SD rig and experienced crew, we delivered results that will serve the homeowner for years to come.
Project Impact
This new well provides the homeowner with direct access to a dependable water supply, eliminating the need for costly, inconvenient water hauling. It’s a great example of what’s possible with the right equipment, crew and mindset.

Why It Matters
Deep-water projects like this highlight the value of hiring an experienced, licensed contractor. Arizona’s groundwater conditions can vary dramatically, and at Western Drilling, we’ve got the local knowledge and professional capabilities to adapt to any terrain – and find the water below it.
