Suqya Water Drilling
WATER IS LIFE. We find ways to sustainable water supply
The Problems.
Less than 25% of the population has access to clean water in 18 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find reliable and capable contractors to develop water projects of high quality and in a sustainable manner.
The Solutions.
Suqya offers water services in Niger State with excellent performance, production, and high-quality standards in the region. Our average production per well is 16 cubic meters per hour, meaning a minimum of 100,000 liters per day - enough to cover the needs of a population of 20,000 every day. Suqya focuses on environmentally friendly solutions that are sustainable and easily maintainable, such as solar-powered water pumps. Among the services Suqya has to offer are:
01
Operating and maintaining the water wells with solar energy panels.
Suqya operating and maintaining water wells with solar energy panels can provide a sustainable and cost-effective solution in areas where access to electricity is limited. The solar panels can be used to power the pumps that extract water from the well, as well as to provide lighting and power for other equipment such as monitoring and control systems.
One benefit of using solar energy to operate and maintain water wells is that it eliminates the need for a connection to the electrical grid, which can be expensive and difficult to establish in remote or rural areas.
Solar energy is also a renewable and sustainable source of energy, which can help to reduce the environmental impact of extracting and distributing water.
It is important to ensure that the solar panels and the pump are properly sized to match the water demand, and that the system is properly designed, installed, and maintained to ensure optimal performance and longevity. A regular maintenance schedule for the water well and solar panels must be put in place to ensure the water well continues to function properly, and the solar panels are producing the desired amount of energy.
Overall, using solar energy to operate and maintain water wells can provide a sustainable, cost-effective and reliable solution in areas where access to electricity is limited. It can also help to reduce the environmental impact of extracting and distributing water.

Operating and maintaining water projects to ensure sustainability for 25 years
Suqya operating and maintaining water well projects to ensure sustainability for 25 years requires a comprehensive approach that includes regular monitoring, maintenance, and repair of the wells and associated infrastructure.
The following are some key steps that can be taken to ensure the sustainability of water well projects for 25 years:
-
Regular monitoring: Regular monitoring of the water well's performance, water level, and water quality is essential to ensure that the well is functioning properly and that the water is safe to use.
-
Preventive maintenance: A preventive maintenance program should be put in place to ensure that the well and associated equipment are regularly inspected, cleaned, and repaired as needed.
-
Regular repair and replacement: Regular repair and replacement of the well's components, such as the pump, motor, and electrical wiring, can help to prolong the life of the well and ensure its continued operation.
-
Water management: Implementing water management strategies can help to ensure the sustainable use of the well's water resources, such as metering and rationing, and implementing conservation measures.
-
Community involvement: Involving the local community in the management and maintenance of the water well can help to ensure that the well is used and maintained responsibly and that the community is invested in its long-term sustainability.
-
Training: Providing training to the local community on how to maintain and repair the well, as well as on the importance of conservation and responsible water use, can help to ensure the sustainability of the well for 25 years.
By implementing these steps, it is possible to ensure the sustainability of water well projects for 25 years and beyond.

Installing high towers for water reservoirs so that water is delivered to the villages adjacent to the water well within 6km.
Suqya installing high towers for water well reservoirs can be a way to deliver water to villages that are located farther away from the water well. By elevating the water storage tanks at a high point, it increases the water pressure, which allows water to be pumped over longer distances.
The tower's height will depend on the location, topography, and the distance the water needs to be pumped. Typically, a tower's height of at least 30 meters is needed to pump water over a distance of 6km.
The tower should be made of durable material, such as steel or concrete, and it should be designed to withstand wind, rain and other environmental factors. The tank should be protected from the sun and insulated to avoid water overheating and algae growth.
The tower should be equipped with a pump and a control system that can be used to regulate the flow of water, as well as a water treatment system to ensure that the water is safe to drink.
It is also important to have a maintenance plan for the tower and the water system that includes regular cleaning and inspection of the tower and the water system, as well as repairs and replacements as needed.
Overall, installing high towers for water well reservoirs can be an effective way to deliver water to villages that are located farther away from the water well. It requires a proper design and construction of the tower, a reliable water pumping and control system, and a regular maintenance plan to ensure the sustainability of the system.
