Application of high-efficiency water well drilling rig in drinking water safety project in Botswana
2024-07-22
1. Project Background
 
The western region of Botswana is located in an arid zone with low annual rainfall. Groundwater has become the main water source, but the traditional water extraction method is inefficient and difficult to meet the villagers' daily drinking water needs.
 
2. Project Objectives
The project aims to solve the drinking water safety problem of local villagers and improve their quality of life by introducing advanced water well drilling technology to quickly, safely and efficiently drill deep groundwater wells.
