Environmental Services

Drilling, Well Construction, and Well Decommissioning

Our qualified specialists use modern, self-propelled drilling rigs and dry auger drilling technology to build wells and boreholes, with or without casing. Drilling diameters range from 100 mm to 506 mm, with a maximum depth of 50 meters.

We take on the construction of:

  • Boreholes,
  • Piezometers,
  • Injection wells,
  • Monitoring and production wells.

In addition, we carry out well decommissioning in compliance with the relevant Hungarian regulations, supported by the required water rights permitting process.

Emergency Response and Damage Control

We provide rapid response to oil spill incidents, including immediate professional intervention, localization of the contamination, full administrative support, and liaison with the authorities. All our work is carried out in compliance with the relevant Hungarian environmental regulations, with 24/7 availability, if required.

Engineering Geophysical Survey

Reliable, accurate data is essential for successful planning. By combining the widely applied CPT method with geophysical measurements, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the site’s geotechnical properties, providing a solid foundation for further design and implementation.

Storage Tank Services

Tank Cleaning

ELGOSCAR provides periodic inspection, maintenance, and repair of storage tanks for hazardous liquids, as well as the necessary cleaning during product changes. Safety and efficiency are our top priorities in every task we perform.

Tank Inspection

In accordance with the Hungarian Ministry for National Economy Decree No. 1/2016 (I.5.) and Government Decree No. 216/2019 (IX.5.), storage tanks for hazardous liquids must undergo regular inspection. In many cases, tanks need to be cleaned beforehand to prepare them for inspection. Our company and staff hold all required certifications for both cleaning and inspection. All inspections are carried out according to the Technical Manual for Tank Inspections, which has been fully integrated into our Quality Management System.

Tank Installation

Our company designs, approves, and installs both standard and custom tanks, including all related fittings, pipelines, and mechanical components.

Tank Decommissioning

Our company decommissions obsolete tanks and tank farms, removes contamination sources, and manages waste, including potential recycling.

Dewatering Services

We provide complete dewatering solutions for construction sites and open-water areas, including:

  • Lowering groundwater levels to create a dry work environment for deep construction projects,
