First Hyundai Everdigm ECR18 Delivered in Australia

Topdrive Drillers ECR18 1

Performing Flawlessly

Earlier this month, representatives from Hyundai Everdigm Korea travelled to Australia to join Feaver Group in officially handing over the new rig to Topdrive Drillers Australia — one of the country’s leading drilling contractors.

The visit and handover represented a significant step forward in Feaver Group’s partnership with Hyundai Everdigm, as the ECR18 becomes the first of its kind to enter the Australian exploration mining market.

A big thank you to Craig, Richard, and the Hyundai team for the delivery and support. The rig is performing really well and hasn’t missed a beat in the past few weeks. Our crews are loving the new addition and have settled in quickly. Now it’s time to punch some metres — go the mighty ECR18!

Built for precision and productivity, the ECR18 brings world-class engineering to diamond core drilling, combining power, mobility, and ease of maintenance to suit Australian conditions.

Feaver Group Managing Director Richard Stickland said the milestone reflects the growing strength of the partnership between Feaver Group and Hyundai Everdigm.

It’s fantastic to see the ECR18 in action with such a capable team. Topdrive Drillers Australia are known for their high standards, so to see them embrace this rig and perform so strongly straight out of the gate is a great result.

With continued support from Hyundai Everdigm’s engineering team in Korea and Feaver Group’s local service network, the ECR18 marks the beginning of a new chapter for diamond drilling solutions in Australia.
