Well-drilling companies and per-foot drilling costs
- Water for industry
- Industrial water, wells and discharges
- not audited
The local market includes Hidromaster (32+ years; agricultural, industrial and residential wells, plus reverse osmosis), PERFOSONDA (founded in 1988; well drilling and completion), Hidroperforaciones (15+ years; drilling and maintenance, with rigs rated above 1,200 feet), and Aquaperforaciones, Soluciones Agro Hídricas and Hidrobombas (drilling and equipment); all of these are promotional claims from the companies' own sites, to be verified at tender. Prices per foot drilled are not public: they are quoted project by project according to depth, diameter and formation. The only public budget reference is a SEGEPLAN SNIP file for the construction and equipping of a state well. The dossier recommends obtaining 2-3 indicative quotes for an industrial well of 800-1,200 feet and 8-12 inches.
The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
