  1. What would it take to drill a borehole and pump water about 1 Kilometer and half away from the needy community.

    Is it possible to pump and supply water by at least three locations with taps?

    The Location is Kidera, Buyende
    Your quick response will be highly helpful

    1. Hello Mr. Ojambo,
      Yes, it’s possible to pump water through 1.5km and supply it to different taps.
      In this case, a water reservoir will be needed. the size of the reservoir will depend on the borehole yield, size of the community, energy used to run the pump.
      We can have an itemized proposed/estimated quotation to your email or WhatsApp contact.
      To have a borehole ready for pump installation, the following processes are involved;
      1. Hydogeological survey – To determine the best drilling point
      2. Drilling, sitting, and development
      3. Pump and recovery testing – To determine borehole safe yield and recommended pump installation depth.
