Hello Nairalanders,

I appreciate everyone who responded to my earlier post on the captioned. I eventually chose somebody who has given me exactly what I pictured in my mind.

I need another enlightenment. I intend sinking a borehole on the site and I have done a geo-survey. The man who handled geo-survey has also offered to get the borehole drilling company for me (some hi-tech Indians).

However I am apprehensive as I've heard of how people are swindled by not getting the depth paid for as indicated on the survey. Example is where you have 70 metres on geo-survey and only 50 metres done just because water had been discovered in considerable quantity. Meanwhile, 70 metres was paid for.

QUESTION: Is there a way to monitor the whole process so as to get the depth recommended on the survey as I have heard of some Geologists deliberately adding to the depth on the surveey in order to leave room for their cuts?
