Borehole by definition is a deep, narrow hole made in the ground, especially to locate water or oil.
Borehole water can be used for;
- Irrigation
- Home use
- Poultry, livestock and aquaculture
- Industrial and municipal use
Special machinery is used to drill deep into the earth’s surface. While the depth of an average borehole ranges between 0m – 150m, it can vary greatly from one borehole to another.
Once the borehole has been drilled, the necessary unstable lengths of the borehole are cased in an effort to reinforce the ‘tube’.
