At Biowater Solutions we explore aquifers, drill wells and evaluate their performance. We combine technology, field experience and a firm commitment to efficiency to deliver water security to companies, institutions and communities.

We locate the aquifer, drill the well with DTH technology and hand it over tested. For agricultural exporters and growers in Peru and the region.

BWS Finder

Find the water

Geophysics with a reach of up to 500 m and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) to locate the aquifer before drilling.

BWS Builder

Drill with DTH

Down-the-hole hammer with very-high-pressure air and simultaneous casing: we drill and case in the same pass.

BWS Sense

Secure the flow

Swabbing, pumping test and flow measurement. The well is handed over tested and running.

Find the water before drilling.

Exploration shows where the aquifer is and how deep, so the well is drilled in the right spot and the investment carries less risk.

  • Geophysical survey

    We define layers, thicknesses and aquifer depth, with a reach of up to 500 m.

  • Hydrogeological assessment

    Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) to choose the drilling point.

DTH drilling, proven in the field.

The method BWS specializes in. At Villacurí (Ica) we drilled with DTH in ground where other systems are normally used.

  • Very-high-pressure air

    Down-the-hole hammer with simultaneous casing: we drill and case in the same pass.

  • No gravel pack

    After swabbing, the well delivers clean water.

  • Crawler-mounted rig

    The drilling rig runs on crawler tracks.

  • Cable tool and tricone too

    When the ground or the design calls for them.

  • Commissioning

    Pump and control panel installation until the well is running.

  • Environmental commitment: our differentiator

    We protect the aquifer: we drill without muds that contaminate it, and we measure what we extract.

Field record

BWS's work in each phase, in numbers.

  • BWS Finder Area studied with hydrogeology and tomography 1,950 ha
  • BWS Builder Well drilling over 1,200 m
  • BWS Builder Flow of the wells 35–40 l/s
  • BWS Sense Well maintenance 1,440 m
  • BWS Sense Downhole camera inspection 900 m

Every well is handed over tested.

A pumping test shows how far the water level drops while pumping and how long it takes to recover. Those readings size the pump and set the operating flow.

  • Well development (swabbing)

    We remove fines so clean water flows in from the aquifer.

  • Pumping tests and flow measurement

    We measure flow, dynamic level and recovery.

  • Downhole camera inspection

    Video survey of the well interior to diagnose its condition.

  • Maintenance

    Maintenance of wells in operation.

Mining and construction experience, applied to water.

  • Drillers

    Our drilling crew comes from mining and construction projects.

  • Consultants

    They know the permitting process and have a good relationship with the ANA.

  • Working with other teams

    Each unit can work with the client's technical team or with outside specialists.

Permits with the ANA

We handle the well's permits and documentation with Peru's National Water Authority (ANA). Our consultants have a good working relationship with the ANA.

Partners and suppliers

We are looking for long-term relationships with manufacturers and suppliers of drilling, pumping and geophysical equipment, in Peru and the United States.
