Drilling Deeper
Posted on September 05, 2009 by Barak in Africa | No Comments
Julias Mpepa, one of Seeds of Hope’s lead drillers, is setting up to add another section of drill stem. This well in Misaka will probably hit the 50 meter mark. While shallow groundwater exists in this region, high population densities cause rapid contamination, necessitating the drilling of deeper boreholes. Depending on the rig and geology, this process can take a few days to a few weeks.
