Find the Right Borehole Pumps For the Job

Aqua Energy Group is Newcastle’s trusted provider of high-performance borehole pumps, specialising in mining and industrial applications across the Hunter region and beyond. Our comprehensive range of solutions extends from dewatering systems to irrigation support and process water management.

Reliable borehole pumps are essential for maintaining water supply, dewatering, and process efficiency in Australian mining operations. Beyond mining, these versatile pumps are used across diverse sectors, including oil and gas extraction, agricultural irrigation, and industrial processing. Our team brings decades of experience in selecting, installing, and maintaining borehole pumps designed for harsh environments, ensuring compliance with Australian standards and minimising operational downtime.

Application and Features

Borehole pumps are designed to extract water or other fluids from deep underground sources, such as aquifers, for use in various applications, including mining, industry, agriculture, and residential settings. In mining, these pumps are critical for dewatering operations, dust suppression, and process water supply. Borehole pumps are typically installed vertically within a drilled borehole, with the pump body submerged below the water table to maximise efficiency and prevent cavitation.

The correct selection of bore pump is essential for ensuring a reliable water supply, pressure boosting, and efficient operation in demanding environments. Whether extracting from shallow ground water or deep aquifers, quality borehole pumps offer benefits such as high hydraulic efficiency, reduced maintenance requirements, and extended service life, all of which contribute to lower operational costs and improved site productivity.
