Successful Projects
We have successfully delivered water solutions for major corporations, international organizations, and government institutions across Tanzania and East Africa.
At Williamson Diamond Mine in Mwadui, we implemented a comprehensive water management system to support one of Tanzania's largest diamond mining operations. Our team drilled multiple high-yield boreholes to provide reliable water supply for both mining processes and the surrounding worker communities.
The project involved advanced hydrogeological surveys to identify optimal aquifer locations, followed by precision drilling in challenging geological formations. We installed industrial-grade pumping systems capable of delivering consistent water supply 24/7, ensuring uninterrupted mining operations.
Our sustainable approach included water treatment solutions and recycling systems that helped reduce the mine's environmental footprint. The successful implementation demonstrated our capability to handle large-scale industrial water projects with complex requirements and strict compliance standards.
Our partnership with the United Nations World Food Programme focused on providing sustainable water solutions for refugee camps and vulnerable communities across Tanzania. We implemented emergency water supply systems in remote locations where access to clean water was critical for survival and basic hygiene.
The project involved rapid deployment of borehole drilling teams to crisis-affected areas, where we established reliable water sources within tight timelines. Our solar-powered pumping systems ensured continuous water supply without dependency on grid electricity.
We worked closely with WFP teams to design community-managed water systems that empowered local populations. The project included training community members in basic maintenance, creating local ownership and ensuring the longevity of the water infrastructure.
For Barrick Gold Mine, we delivered specialized water management solutions that supported their gold mining operations while maintaining the highest environmental standards. Our work involved developing comprehensive water supply systems for both processing facilities and worker accommodations.
The project required sophisticated hydrogeological assessments to locate sustainable water sources that wouldn't impact local community water tables. We implemented advanced water treatment and recycling systems that allowed Barrick to minimize freshwater consumption.
Our team worked extensively on water conservation measures, including rainwater harvesting systems and efficient distribution networks. The project demonstrated how industrial water needs can be met responsibly while protecting local water resources and supporting surrounding communities.
For the Tanzania People's Defence Force (JWTZ), we developed secure and reliable water supply systems for military installations. Our work focused on creating resilient water infrastructure that could operate independently under various conditions and ensure water security for defense operations.
The project involved designing and implementing multiple borehole systems with redundant pumping capabilities and emergency backup systems. We incorporated advanced water purification technology to ensure water quality met the highest standards for military use.
Our team worked with military engineers to create integrated water management systems that included storage, distribution, and treatment facilities. The project demonstrated our ability to handle sensitive installations with strict security requirements and operational reliability standards.
Our collaboration with Water Mission International focused on bringing sustainable safe water solutions to remote communities across Tanzania. Together, we implemented community-managed water projects that transformed lives by providing reliable access to clean drinking water.
The partnership combined our drilling expertise with Water Mission's innovative water treatment technology. We worked in some of the most challenging terrains, drilling boreholes and installing solar-powered pumping systems that communities could maintain and operate independently.
Each project included comprehensive community engagement, training local water committees, and establishing sustainable management structures. The initiative significantly reduced waterborne diseases and improved overall community health, particularly benefiting women and children.
For Coca Cola's Mwanza bottling plant, we developed industrial water supply solutions that met the beverage giant's stringent quality standards. Our work involved creating a reliable water source that could support high-volume production while maintaining consistent water quality.
The project required sophisticated water treatment systems to ensure the water met Coca Cola's exacting specifications for beverage production. We implemented multiple boreholes with advanced filtration and purification technology.
Our solution included water conservation measures and recycling systems that aligned with Coca Cola's sustainability goals. The project demonstrated our ability to meet industrial clients' specific requirements while maintaining environmental responsibility and operational efficiency.
Our partnership with TGNP focused on gender-responsive water projects that specifically addressed the water needs of women and girls in rural communities. We implemented water solutions that reduced the time and effort women spend collecting water.
The projects were designed with extensive community consultation, particularly engaging women in the planning and decision-making processes. We established water committees with significant female representation and provided leadership training.
Beyond providing water access, the initiative included sanitation facilities and hygiene education programs. The project demonstrated how water infrastructure can be a catalyst for gender equality and women's empowerment in rural Tanzania.
For China Wuyi's major infrastructure projects across Tanzania, we provided comprehensive water solutions that supported large-scale construction activities and permanent facility operations. Our work involved establishing temporary and permanent water supply systems.
The project required rapid deployment of water infrastructure to support construction timelines while ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. We implemented borehole systems that provided reliable water for construction processes and worker camps.
Our solutions included water treatment for specific construction requirements and sustainable water management practices that minimized environmental impact. The collaboration demonstrated our capability to support international construction firms with complex water infrastructure needs.
For the Kikagati Hydroelectric Power Project on the Tanzania-Uganda border, we provided specialized water solutions that supported the construction and operation of this cross-border energy infrastructure.
The project involved complex hydrogeological assessments in the challenging terrain around the Kagera River. We implemented water supply systems for construction activities, worker accommodations, and permanent operational needs.
Our team navigated cross-border regulations and worked with international engineering teams to deliver solutions that met both Tanzanian and Ugandan standards. The project showcased our ability to handle complex international infrastructure projects with multiple stakeholders.
