End-to-end borehole drilling & water engineering solutions

Milimani Drilling East Africa Ltd provides complete water solutions—from hydrogeological surveys and borehole construction to solar pumping, water storage, filtration and irrigation systems—designed for long-term reliability and sustainability.

01
Hydrogeological Surveys & Permitting
Certified geophysicists perform 2D resistivity imaging to map water-bearing formations and manage all WRA, NEMA, and county statutory approvals.
Survey details
02
Borehole Drilling & Construction
Heavy mud-rotary and DTH hammer drilling with Class 9/10 UPVC or stainless steel casing, precision gravel packing, and thorough physical development.
Drilling details
03
Solar-Powered Pumping Systems
Tier-1 solar photovoltaic pumping systems paired with Grundfos or Lorentz brushless DC/AC submersible pumps for dependable off-grid operation.
Solar pumping details
04
Water Quality Testing & Filtration
Laboratory chemical and bacteriological analysis benchmarked to WHO standards, with reverse osmosis, defluoridation, and chlorination treatment systems.
Treatment details
05
Storage Towers & Piped Reticulation
Engineered steel elevated towers, pressed-steel panel tanks, and distribution pipe networks that reticulate water directly to taps, clinics, and schools.
Storage details
06
Borehole Rehabilitation & Servicing
Reviving defunct or low-yielding donor boreholes with high-pressure air jetting, chemical acidization, re-casing, and pump overhauls to restore yield.
Maintenance details
07
Test Pumping & Aquifer Yield Assessment
Step-drawdown and continuous 24-hour constant rate yield testing measuring aquifer recovery, water clarity, and sustainable discharge to accurately size pumping systems.
Test pumping details
08
Drip & Sprinkler Irrigation Systems
Pressurized micro-drip and overhead sprinkler networks paired with automated solar pumping and storage to maximize crop yield per cubic metre of groundwater.
Irrigation details
09
Solar Heat Pump Water Heating
High-efficiency air-source heat pumps powered by solar PV, delivering continuous hot water at up to 75% less energy cost for hotels, hospitals, schools, and homes.

Drilling Procedure

Our structured borehole drilling process

We follow a structured, professional engineering procedure to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and the long-term yield and performance of every borehole we construct.

1
Hydrogeological Survey & Permits
Hydrogeological surveys analyse subsurface geology and aquifer properties to determine the best drilling point and depth, supporting EIA, WRA and NEMA permit facilitation.
2
Drilling Equipment Mobilization
Once approvals and logistics are coordinated, drilling rigs, compressor units and support vehicles are mobilized to your site to commence ground works.
3
Borehole Drilling & Construction
The rig drills through geological strata, installs approved physical casings (uPVC or mild steel), gravel pack filters, and conducts well development and stabilization.
4
Water Testing & Pump Equipping
A 24‑hour constant rate yield test and chemical water analysis confirm potable safety and sustainable discharge rate to accurately engineer the permanent pumping system.
