Selected list of drilled boreholes in Uganda

We have worked on several drilling projects including;

We have worked in different regions of the country, including the Central, Eastern, Western, and Northern areas. We gained more experience in handling different soil formations and rock types.

Listed below is some of our selected drilled water boreholes
