Public works in water
and renewable energy.
Forex BTP has rapidly established itself in hydraulics and renewable energy in Mali, through investment in quality equipment and partnerships with established firms — a combination of expertise that enables access to markets of significant scale or complexity.
In the field
Our projects, in pictures.
A selection of on-site projects, photographed in Mali.
Our expertise
Eight areas of expertise, one team.
Department staff are primarily hydrogeological and civil engineers, backed by drilling teams equipped with quality machinery — enabling the following work to be carried out simultaneously:
Geophysical surveys
Siting using the electrical method: profiles, electrical soundings, resistivity traverses, hydrogeological report.
Water drilling
Up to 300 meters deep, with complete drilling equipment and mobile rigs.
Water quality testing
Pumping tests (CIEH method), analysis of water availability and quality.
Pumping installations
Hand pumps (PMH) and solar-powered pumps suited to village and rural contexts.
Hydraulic systems
Water storage and distribution for market gardening, and private/public distribution networks.
Urban and peri-urban water supply
Water supply for urban centers and expanding peripheral areas.
Solar parks
On-grid and off-grid installations, including battery storage equipment.
WASH systems
Water, sanitation and hygiene: latrines, handwashing, chlorination, sanitary infrastructure.
Field impact
13 years of presence on Sahelian ground.
Recent projects
Projects across Mali.
A non-exhaustive list of major contracts delivered in recent years for international donors, NGOs, embassies and private clients — village hydraulics, solar energy and health infrastructure.
Phase 1 across 2 sites (20 ha and 7 ha): geophysical siting using the electrical method (13 profiles, 14 soundings, 8 resistivity traverses), CIEH-method pumping tests on 4 existing boreholes, hydrogeological report. 14 drilling points identified and prioritized for Phase 2.
Groupe Batimat MaliSubcontracted for OMVS: drilling of 5 large-diameter positive boreholes across 8 localities (Bamafelé, Niakalinsiraya, Oualia Kolon, Goungoto, Faroko, Diatawali, Moussabougou, Tantoudji). Drilling, casing, reaming, full equipment fit-out and Air Lift development.
S.E.TRA. — Société d’Équipement et de Travaux du MaliDelivery of 2 SHVA systems (N’Tarla CSCOM and Bambougou maternity ward, 2 market garden plots) and 5 AES systems across 5 villages. Part of an ongoing series of annual mandates covering the construction of basic water supply systems in central Mali.
World Vision International MaliDrilling of 39 new productive boreholes fitted with hand pumps across 5 cercles, including the villages of Walougou and the Kandiaré school (Fatao and Diangounté communes, Diéma cercle).
World Vision International MaliSupply and installation of 3 solar power systems: 30 kWp at ITMA institute (Bako Djicoroni Campus), 15 kWp at Lycée Les Castors (Badalabougou), and 15 kWp at ITMA (ACI-2000 Campus).
ITMA — Institut technologique du MaliDrilling of 78 productive boreholes fitted with hand pumps across the Bandiagara, Koulikoro, Koutiala, Nioro regions and the Bamako district, split into 2 lots.
World Vision International MaliSupply, installation and commissioning of a 120-panel monocrystalline 445W array (54.5 kWp total peak output), 2 Fronius Eco 27 kVA inverters with bidirectional meters, and a parking shelter.
Embassy of Norway in MaliProductive boreholes and solar-pumped water towers, rehabilitation of existing boreholes at health centers in the Kayes and Ségou regions — one of several contracts delivered as prime contractor for this client.
CCISD / BECEYAInstallation of solar-pumped irrigation systems at two pastoral facilities (watering points) in the Hamdallaye and Sirakoro communities.
