SPACEWATER.xyz™ Borehole Planning
Borehole planning for industrial & community farming in KENYA (2022)
CONTEXT
Hydroponics Africa, a company established in Letea region (Northern Kenya), called on RTI to plan the drilling of a new well for a community of 2,000 members. This region suffers from important droughts and scarce rainfall. The desired well needed a minimum capacity of 10 m³/h.
RTI deployed its online Borehole Planning service called spacewater.xyz™ and within less than a week after reception of the drilling coordinates received from RTI, Hydroponics Africa drilled the new borehole for the Letea community.
METHOD
- RTI used the Spacewater.xyz™ service which is based on the WATEX™ System results.
- The challenge surpassed by RTI was to find fresh water in an area where highly saline, hydrothermal water is preponderant.
RESULTS
- The well was drilled down to 25 meters and fresh water was struck at 12 meters with a yield of 12 m³/h, making possible the supply of water to 2,000 people and their cattle.
- Preparation of a second economic life, parallel to the industrial project employing some of the Letea community members.
