One such beneficiary, Uzman Sondaj, a specialist in underground and underwater exploration, has seen its operations in Turkey thrive with the help of Atlas Copco’s advanced equipment.
Based in Karaman, a region where demand for reliable water solutions is critical due to ongoing urban development and industrial expansion, Uzman Sondaj has been addressing the growing need for reliable water access. Their expertise in water well drilling plays a crucial role in securing groundwater resources across diverse and challenging terrains, including both rural areas and densely populated urban centers.
Operating in extreme field conditions for over 30 years, Uzman Sondaj has continually adapted to the challenging environments their work demands, and their partnership with Atlas Copco has been part of that success.
With the company’s newest portable drilling compressor, an X28, Uzman Sondaj can drill wells more effectively, ensuring a steady supply of water for local farmers’ irrigation needs.
Extreme conditions
Atlas Copco’s large drilling air compressors offer flexibility with pressures from 13 to 40 bar, providing the adaptability needed for constantly changing site conditions. The machines also have a high fuel efficiency and long durability.
