What sets this area apart

Wafra is a zone of villas and farms on large plots with mixed old and new construction; some depend on farming and others on residence. Underground tanks there are relatively large and need special design because some farms require additional irrigation water drainage. The soil is mostly dry sand, but groundwater may sit at shallow depth in some spots due to proximity to the Saudi border and wetlands. We excavate with great care and install a strong lateral drainage system, then waterproof the tank with cement layers and tight waterproof membranes to prevent seepage and contamination.

Wafra sits in Ahmadi governorate, an agricultural-residential zone near the co-operative and close to the Saudi border.

Wafra underground tanks require strong lateral drainage due to shallow groundwater and seasonal damp soil.

Questions about Underground tank construction in Wafra

Does a farm tank differ from a residential villa tank in Wafra?

Yes, a farm needs a larger tank and additional drainage for irrigation water. A residential villa needs a smaller tank for household use only. Both cases require strong waterproofing due to shallow groundwater.

How do you handle shallow groundwater in Wafra?

We install a strong horizontal drainage system around the tank before pouring and monitor water level during excavation and pouring. After that we waterproof the tank with tight membranes to prevent seepage and contamination from groundwater.
