For Mining, Tunneling & Oil and Gas Site Preparation

At Imex Canada, we offer advanced Jumbo Drill rigs designed to meet the demanding needs of mining, tunneling, and oil & gas infrastructure projects worldwide. Our robust supplier network and deep expertise mean you get reliable, cost-effective Jumbo Drills tailored for your toughest site conditions whether you’re driving tunnels in hard rock or preparing critical access routes for energy developments.

What is a Jumbo Drill?

A Jumbo Drill is a powerful, multi-boom drilling rig used to drill holes for blasting, anchoring, and support in large-scale underground projects. Featuring one or more drill arms, these machines enable precision drilling in rock and soil, making them essential for:

  • Underground mine development
  • Tunnel construction for rail, road, or pipelines
  • Access and service tunnels for oil and gas facilities
  • Site preparation in oil sands and remote resource plays

While primarily associated with mining and tunneling, Jumbo Drills also play a crucial role in the early stages of oil and gas projects where infrastructure, safety tunnels, and underground supports are needed before production drilling begins.
