Common Questions about Ocean Drill EA Ltd

Q: How deep should a borehole be?
A: Borehole depth in Kenya is determined by hydrogeological surveys that estimate water depth. Drilling companies typically follow recommended depths from hydrogeologists but can dig deeper upon client request.
Q: How long does borehole drilling take?
A: Drilling duration depends on site accessibility, geological conditions, and potential complications. While typical completion time is about one week for drilling and equipping, it can vary based on these factors.
Q: What is better: plastic casing or steel casing?
A: Both plastic and steel casings have advantages and limitations. Plastic casing is cheaper, lighter, and rust-proof but brittle, suitable for depths under 100 meters. Steel casing is stronger and suitable for greater depths but can rust over approximately 75 years. The two materials cannot be mixed in a single borehole.
Q: How long does a borehole last?
A: A well-constructed borehole can last for generations. Some may require rehabilitation to maintain functionality. The company has successfully rehabilitated many boreholes in Kenya and tested water quality for safety.
Q: What happens if a borehole is dry?
A: Dry boreholes can occur due to seasonal changes or natural water table variations. The company recommends working with qualified hydrogeologists to improve success rates and reports having drilled over 300 successful boreholes.
Q: Which regions in Kenya do you serve?
A: The company operates throughout Kenya, having served nearly every region. They work with communities, NGOs, government agencies, county governments, institutions, and private individuals seeking reliable water sources.
Q: What documents are required for borehole drilling?
A: Required documents include a borehole license from the Ministry of Water, a NEMA report, and authorization from the Water Resource Management Authority. The company offers guidance in obtaining these if clients don't already have them.
Q: What is a hydro-geological report?
A: This report from a geologist provides accurate water depth information and identifies the best drilling site for a borehole.
Q: Why is a NEMA report needed?
A: A NEMA report is mandatory before drilling to conduct an environmental impact assessment test.
Q: Why is a water analysis report necessary?
A: After drilling and test pumping, water samples are sent to government laboratories for testing. The resulting analysis report determines if the water is safe for domestic or industrial use.
