Profile

Established in May 2011, we are an African drilling company with a daring and inventive entrepreneurial mind-set. Since 2011, IDC is member of the Senegalese Chamber of Mines (Chambre des Mines du Sénégal, CMDS) and the Côte d’Ivoire Chamber of Mines (Chambre Des Mines de Côte d’Ivoire, CDMCI).

We offer highly flexible drilling services and operate in areas that are hard to access thanks to a modern drilling fleet, uncompromising safety standards and intimate knowledge of local business culture and language. Absolutely independent but also deeply reliable, we tailor customized solutions to meet the specific needs of our clients.
