Core Drilling Rig Rental Cost per Month in Sweden 2025: Price List, Quotation & Supplier Deals

Need a core drilling rig for your construction project in Sweden? Let’s face it – buying heavy equipment outright can drain your budget. But here’s the good news: renting one might save you up to 60% compared to purchasing. This guide breaks down the monthly rental cost, top suppliers, and smart strategies to get the best quotes.

Why Rent a Core Drilling Rig in Sweden?

Sweden’s construction sector grew by 8% in 2023, fueling demand for flexible equipment solutions. A typical core drilling rig rental costs between SEK 25,000–45,000/month, depending on depth capacity (50–300 mm) and power type (electric vs. hydraulic). For comparison, Germany’s rates are 15% higher due to stricter emissions regulations.
