OVER the weekend, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Shaik Baksh, along with members of the technical team visited the well site at Melanie Damishana on the East Coast of Demerara (ECD), where drilling is underway to supplement the intake at the new Bachelor’s Adventure Water Treatment Plant.
The borehole, according to GWI, has been drilled to approximately 1,000 feet and completed, while the conductor casing has already been installed. Well drilling is expected to be completed by the end of March 2026.
The Bachelor’s Adventure Water Treatment Plant is slated for commissioning soon and forms part of GWI’s ongoing efforts to expand treated water coverage, improve reliability, and enhance service delivery to customers.
These investments, GWI said, reflect its commitment to sustainable water solutions and will ensure communities have access to a safe and reliable water supply.
