FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What is divining and how does it help with water bore drilling?
Divining, also known as dowsing, uses a divining rod or pendulum to locate underground water sources. It can help with water bore drilling by identifying the most promising locations, potentially saving time and money compared to drilling blindly.
Can water divining tell how deep water is?
Water divining may give a general idea of where water might be located, but it cannot precisely determine depth or flow rate. Some experienced diviners can estimate depth based on rod movement or resistance, but these estimates are not scientifically verified. For accurate depth and yield predictions, a combination of divining, local geological knowledge, and historical bore data is recommended. This helps reduce the risk of drilling dry or underperforming bores.
Is water divining still used in modern drilling?
Yes, water divining is still used by some drilling contractors and property owners, especially in rural areas without access to detailed geological surveys. While it doesn’t replace scientific testing, it can provide practical insights, particularly when drilling on large acreage. Many drillers use divining as a complementary tool before confirming a site with more technical methods. It’s one of several approaches used to improve bore success rates in uncertain ground.
