At AquaCore Drilling & Water Solutions Ltd, we follow a structured and compliant workflow to guarantee safe, reliable, and high-yield borehole drilling in Kenya. Every project is handled by certified hydrogeologists and experienced engineers to ensure WRMA and NEMA compliance from start to finish. Whether it's a hydrogeological survey, borehole drilling, pump installation, water treatment, or solar pumping, our process ensures accuracy, transparency, and long-lasting results.
Hydrogeological Survey & Groundwater Assessment
We begin with a detailed hydrogeological survey in Kenya, including VES tests, aquifer analysis, and groundwater mapping. This identifies the best drilling point, expected depth, and yield — reducing risk and ensuring WRMA-approved drilling.
WRMA / NEMA Licensing & Approvals
Our team handles all borehole drilling permits in Kenya, including WRMA applications, NEMA EIA reports, and county approvals. This ensures the project is legally compliant and ready for safe drilling.
Professional Borehole Drilling & Construction
We deploy modern rotary or DTH rigs (80–450m) for efficient borehole drilling in Kenya. The process includes casing, gravel packing, borehole development, and geological logging to guarantee structural integrity and high water productivity.
Professional Borehole Drilling & Construction
After drilling, we install the appropriate solar or electric borehole pump, complete the piping, run pump tests, treat water if required, and commission the system. The result is a fully operational, dependable water supply system.
