About the company…

Although BalRock LLC was incorporated on 1 August 2001, the company’s origin goes back to 1949 when the blasting service of the soil improvement agency began its activities at the Ministry of State Farms. A few years later the drilling department was started.

In 1960 the agency was liquidated and the blasting and drilling departments were merged with EMV, the unit for construction and assembly works of the Ministry of Agriculture. In 1966 EMV merged with the water-well design office that had been founded in 1959. In 1972 EMV joined the EKE system and became EKE EMV.

After Estonia regained independence in 1991, EKE EMV was transformed into AS EMV. BalRock LLC considers itself successor of its drilling and blasting departments since Skanska, the construction group that had recently acquired EMV, decided as of 1 August 2001 to sell its drilling and blasting service unit in line with focusing on its core business, construction. As a result of the sale, Balrock acquired all client contracts and legal rights, business information, staff, management and equipment, and of course years of experience.

Up to now over 7000 water-wells have been drilled and installed in Estonia. Many blasting projects have been completed for very varying purposes. Both fields of operations continue to be active in today’s Estonia.

We hope that our more than 50 years of experience in drilling water-wells and carrying out blasting projects is sufficient proof of our expertise, and that our customers will find our extensive experience and quality of work convincing.

We look forward to working with you!

Chairman of the Board
