Completed water treatment plant with UV. Light, beside sunrise flour mill, along Enugu-Abakaliki Expressway, opposite Capital oil depot, Emene, Enugu state.

Rexology:
The project location is Makurdi Benue State.
I will not provide any material.
Yes the geophysical survey was done by a Geophysicist.
There is nobody or group to settle before commencement.

Thanks a lot. Kindly send me a text message, e-mail or call me so that we can discuss it. Thanks in anticipation.

kopell:
are you serious about this settlement with borehole again! For God-sake, how do we get to this level of impunity that results in lawlessness in every aspect of our life?

My brother, sometimes they beat up my workers mercilessly, confiscate our equipment and even materials. Is really very unfortunate.

butterflex:
Please kindly advice the likely cost of fitting a water treatment tank.

Thanks a lot for your interest in our organization, we sincerely appreciate it. Kindly give me the location of the project site. Help me to test the raw water in your mouth to find out if it has any saline content. Equally know that the complete package comes with two tanks of which the seize is determined by the capacity of the house. Regards.

Rexology:
Weldone! Uche, please I would want to know how much it will cost me to drill 90m borehole as recommended by a Surveyor.

Give me the project location, equally let me know if you're providing any material at all. I will equally want to know if the geophysical survey was carried out by a Geophysicist. Finally, find out if there is any possibility of settling some local people or task force before one can commence borehole drilling. Thanks a lot.

sparklight estate (after berger)

Thanks for getting back to me. The price range is a little above #100,000. Let's discuss it fully when you're ready because of the challenge of exchange rate and few other factors that may effect the project cost. More over, I will need to go to the site to inspect few things when the time comes. Thanks a million.

Well development.

Thanks for this useful post. Will gie you a call when ready soon.... How much will it cost in Iwo road area of Ibadan ?

First, a geophysical survey for a suitable ground water will have to carried out to determine the depth and otherwise of the fresh water aquifer, before actually discussing the project cost. Thanking you in anticipation.

Qualer:
Would like to know the average cost of borehole with water treatment, thanks

Give me the location of the proposed project. That will help me in determining few things so as to come up with a competitive price. Thanks a lot.

How much will it cost to do geophysical survey, how long will it take to get the result? Can you get anyone to do it around that area.

I can mobilize some Geophycists from Ibadan, it will take three days to get the report. As per the cost, send me a text or something so that we can discuss it. Thanks a million.

Its in Kwara state 30 minutes drive north Of Ilorin the state capital.

Good, Ilorin is a pure basement complex and as such requires a machine that will penetrate the hard rock formations. Did you carryout a geophysical survey there? Is important you understand that the depth of fresh water aquifer varies from one location to the other even within the same environment. If you insist the depth is what you told me here and your ready to take responsibility for that, then we can talk about it, if not, I recommend a survey for a proper understanding of the project site. Thanks a lot.

Hello I have challenge for you, I don't know how difficult it is going to be for you. It's clear to me, that it's possible due to my background in engineering. Here is the challenge, I had a well of about 35ft depth 2 1/2 ft in diameter, presently with soft wall towards the end before the little water in it. This has made it difficult for the diggers to proceed. I would like you to drill the same location to about 75ft or more because all the area has about 45ft to 50ft to get to clean water. My idea is to run 6" by 5mm thick steel wall pipe to my present depth, fill the side with filling sand so you can proceed to drill until you hit clean drinkable water.

I will need you to tell me the project location so as to enable me have a clear view of the expected depth of the fresh water aquifer. The diameter of the well is always the challenge here, because a shallow borehole of such depth may not require rig, depending on the location anyway. So, get back to me, let me know what we maybe able to do.

Goodday please need advise. I have bought a new submersible pumping machine for my bore hole and want to change the wiring. Kindly advise what kind of wire I would need to effect the change. Pump is Pedrollo 1 Hp

2.5mm is okay. Don't buy 1.5mm because of the capacity of the pump. Thanks a lot.

My question is, is it possible to drill thru the existing hole and turn it to a borehole, u already said that's possible, so, what will the charges be like??will the calculation start from the point where the well digging stops and gets drilled to the fresh water aquifer point level?

Is important for you to understand that every Geologist wants to start his drilling from the scratch, so as to obtain his soil samples from the start to finish, it helps us to take the best decision possible. I told you that the borehole type determines the possibility of that, but even when it is possible, the drilling method determines if the driller will ever take that option. I sincerely advice to engage the services of a Geologist when you believe is the best thing to do, explain everything to him and if he decides to tow that line, fine and good, but if he decides not to, is okay because it is always very difficult and not advantageuos to do so. But above all, he will give you something that will never disappoint you. Thanks a lot in appreciation.

Have you ever drilled in a rocky area like Abeokuta? Many borehole in this area have been abandone due to lack of water.

How do we solve this type of borehole issue?

When it comes to Abeokuta and it's environs, all you need to understand is that there are a lot of rock formations, and as such care must be taken to avoid surprises that may lead to abandoning the borehole entirely. It is much possible to get to the fresh water aquifer, but the only challenge is that clients does not like paying for the geophysical survey which will help everyone to understand nature of the terrain very well. I advice as a professional to engage the services of a geophysicists in other to ascertain what is obtainable in the project location. Thanking in anticipation.

The purpose is for domestic use and as for the budget it is flexible as long as the water will never be exposed to containments of any kind, no salt and drinkable with little to no treatment

It is very difficult to categorically say the exact nature of the underground water in your project location, the final result varies from one project site to another. But one thing I can assure you is that there will be zero salt content in the water and iron if possible will be very light to the extent that treating the water won't pose any serious challenge.

Chelseafan1:
I wanna make an enquiry, I wanna know if it's possible to change a well that has just been dug into a borehole drilling, I mean the well has been dug to water level but it's dirty and muddy, is it possible to continue the work as borehole drilling to get a neater and clearer water, the well with then be covered after installing the borehole pipes and everything that needs to be done, I want to know it its possible.

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.

Have you drilled any borehole around Ibeju-Lekki area? And if yes, would you advice drilling shallow and risk possibly using containmented water or go very deep to the clean underground water?

Thanks a lot, I have done so many jobs in ibeju-lekki and it's environs. We need to know the purpose for which you want to drill the borehole, for instance, is it for domestic or industrial usage? What is your budget like? Kindly let me know so that I can advice you properly. Thanking you in anticipation.

Why then is your geophysical survey saying you should not drill borehole in some location if truly the equipments are available. Is it the cost or there are places where water does not exist at all

There are a lot of issues in some places, some of those issues have nothing to do with the drilling rigs or the cost of borehole drilling. For instance, the presence of contaminants in some locations may contaminate the quality of the underground water. Remember, there are natural and human contaminants, the natural contaminants could be lead, uranium, zinc,etc. whereas human contaminants could be petroleum and refinery waste, mining waste, radioactive substances, toxic chemicals, etc. These can contaminate the underground water and therefore make it unsafe for human consumption. There is equally the issue of shale which is not permeable in some parts of Nigeria, the bedding planes are very compact and leave no pore space for water to pass through it. So, when any of these issues is determined by a pre-drilling underground water investigation, you maybe advised not to drill. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for writing back bro,but,kindly state your best or average price here please,if am happy with it then I can you.

I know there's a lot of clean fresh water there due to the well which was not even upto 200m and clean water was already out.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot, 200m is the depth of an industrial borehole especially on the island, that is not applicable in this case. In Ikotun and its environs, the average fresh water depth for a shallow borehole is 120fts, although it could be as far as 140-160fts as the case maybe. I am not particularly comfortable discussing the price here, because is a very competitive market. Please, endevour to send me a text message or an e-mail, I will reply you with the price immediately. thanks a lot in anticipation.

euromilion:
Hi bros,
Have you done any work in ikotun area?i was wondering how much would you charge to drill a borehole in abaranje rd off ikotun area?.

Thanks.

Thank you so much my brother, we have done a lot jobs around Ikotun and its environs, it has very good underground water as well. Kindly call me on 08036745944, 08099405096, 08084019485 so that we can discuss it further. Thanking you in anticipation.
