How much will you drill around Maryland/Anthony area in Lagos ?

Samaras:


Good day sir. I sent you a mail last week requesting for a borehole drill quotation. Still expecting your reply.

badboygood:
Ibinwanne, I just had a borehole dug like 4 days ago. Now when we pump water from it, the water is clear and clean but then over time it turns brown. Is this normal and is it something that can be rectified?

Ibinwanne, You are wrong, Reason we Nigerians don't grow by trying to improvise new ideas to bring solutions for the people.

With my little experience globally in borehole / Direct PV electricity i.e Solar Borehole water pumping.

All are well, either very wide or narrow on diameter by the White color which we learn most of all basic knowledge from.



uote author=Ibinwanne post=44757638]Thanks a lot for your interest in our organisation, we sincerely appreciate it. Unfortunately, well and borehole are too different things entirely, borehole is drilled to the fresh water aquifer, whereas well is dug to the point that the man digging it feels is unsafe for him to continue digging, either because he thinks he has gotten water or the conditions in which he finds himself inside the hole does not support life any longer, in that case, he tells you that everything is fine, collects his balance if your owing him any and disappears. So, to answer your question directly, you cannot convert well to a borehole. But whoever that wants to do the drilling can drill through the hole, depending on the kind of equipment he is using, some of the manual methods of drilling may not support that. Thanks a lot.

Ok my brother, I sincerely appreciate your view, I have seen and experienced enough to advice my clients to drill a borehole against drilling a well, basically the difference may not be much depending on how you look at it and where you're considering it from. Borehole is simply regarded as a bored hole, the major difference between the two may be in their diameter, well is usually larger than a borehole in diameter. There is no argument that well produces water as well and it can be drilled to depth depending on the environment, we know that in Nigeria, well is usually dug by hand, machine can used in digging a well, we all know what is obtainable in Nigeria, let us not go into whether it is prone to contamination more than borehole or not, one fact I will like you to understand is that the main advantage of a borehole is that it is possible to penetrate the freshwater aquifer to a greater depth ensuring a reliable supply in times of drought or high usage, this is the reality. I remember that I once lived in a compound in Lagos where we had to bring some people to go inside the well periodically to evacuate sand from the well in other to ensure better water supply, because the well was constantly drying up, I remember those men telling us when we pressurize them to evacuate more sand from the hole that they were finding it difficult breathing down there, even the ones that came with oxygen concentrator even complaine of the difficulty introducing oxygen into the hole at certain depths for their man to breath or the wall of the well collapsing. I have dug wells and boreholes in different terrains, I know that drilling a very deep well is a very difficult business, and drilling it in a basement complex is even more difficult. I will always advice my clients to drill a borehole against digging a well, maybe I have preference for it. Thanks a lot my brother.

your WhatsApp number number pls

CruzJoe:
where is your base?........ I meet one driller and asked him price to drill....

He said if I want the best one... I should bring. Bleep amount which is higher


Does it mean there re different types.....what makes it different types?




pls how many pipes re supposed to be buried in the ground.......

Can I chat you on WhatsApp.... mine is under this comment


thanks

CruzJoe:



thanks.... yes....u mentioned my fear of during the dry season..... the water will go down thereby making it insufficient ......like the way well water does........


Am not in a hurry......I just want the best..... the actual period to get the best.......

I guess from your explanation..... to be on safer side........drill during dry season....


Does drilling during the dry season have any other extra cost except buying of water to use in the drilling.....?

CruzJoe:
Pls when is the best season for drilling borehole, during rainy season or dry season?

I know u can drill during any season... But which one is mostly recommended.
