The test pumping of boreholes is an important part of the borehole development. Test pumping aims to promote the efficient use of groundwater.

Borehole Testing Services

The purpose of test pumping is to determine:-

• The Performance Characteristics of Borehole
• Hydraulic Parameters of the Aquifer
• Safe Yield & Abstraction schedules of Boreholes
• Effective Development of the Aquifer
• Contamination & Pollution of Groundwater

The yield of boreholes is tested on completion of the well development prior to the selection of a pumping system.

Our Test Pumps are capable of operating from up to 200 Meter Depths, Pumping Volumes from 0.5 litres per second to a maximum of 30 litres per second.
