Company History
Pitcher Drilling Company
(Pitcher) commenced operations in 1933 providing water well drilling services
using cable tool rigs.
Under the management of founder, John Pitcher, Pitcher evolved into
one of the preeminent geotechnical drilling companies in the United
States. Pitcher Drilling is responsible for many advances in
geotechnical drilling methods, including the
Pitcher Sampler, a
discrete soil coring tool still used widely today.
In 2001 Pitcher was purchased by
Gregg Drilling and Testing, Inc. With the resources
afforded by the new ownership, Pitcher has been able to
upgrade and diversify the equipment and services offered. The blending of new equipment and tooling,
combined with the experience
and professionalism of its employees, has allowed Pitcher to continue to enhance services. Pitcher is
now positioned to tackle even the
most complex geotechnical site investigation projects.
