Combating Water Scarcity with Advanced Geophysical Expertise
Founded under the visionary belief that no community should suffer from water scarcity, Gills Water Well Drilling and Exploration PLC has established itself as Ethiopia’s leading scientific drilling contractor.
We operate not just as basic rig contractors, but as professional hydrogeological consultants. By combining vertical electrical sounding (VES) tomography with rapid rotary matrix operations, we guarantee that communities receive consistent water flows, shielding them from unpredictable weather and unreliable sources.
“We perform vertical electrical sounding profiling down to 700 meters deep before mobilizing heavy rigs. This high-resolution geological foresight delivers deep, safe water, eliminating high costs and disappointments.”

Brief Info About Gills
Water is one of the most important resources available to our country. Utilization of surface and subsurface water will boost the growth of the agricultural sector and other sectors of the economy, improving livelihoods across communities.
Having considered this, Gills Drilling and Exploration Private Limited Company (GDE) intends to provide a comprehensive nonstop solution for the people who are starved of getting clean water by drilling and extracting from the subsurface.
Gills not only drills wells but also installs pumps and provides water to the community that will be used for different purposes like drinking, irrigation, and other activities — ensuring lasting access to clean water for all.
“Gills not only drills wells but also installs pumps and provides clean water to communities for drinking, irrigation, and sustainable development across Tigray and beyond.”
