A Responsible and Sustainable Approach

Licensing water wells is an essential procedure to ensure that both drilling and water extraction are performed within the established legal and environmental parameters. This process not only ensures the rational use of water resources, but also protects the environment and reinforces our commitment to sustainability.

Before initiating any water well project, it is mandatory to obtain authorization from the competent authorities, as defined by current legislation. The research and construction work for water extraction can only be carried out by companies duly licensed under Decree-Law No. 133/2005, of August 16.

Stages of the Licensing Process

The procedure for licensing a water well has two fundamental phases:

  • 1st Phase: Research License.
  • 2nd Phase: Water Exploitation License.

Required Documentation

To initiate the licensing process, it is important to gather documents that demonstrate the property's regularity and the technical feasibility of the project. Among the main documents required are:

  • Property registration or deed of the property where the well will be constructed.
  • Detailed location plan, including the coordinates of the water extraction site.

Benefits of Licensing

Opting for a rigorous licensing process brings numerous advantages, such as:

  • Legal Compliance

    It helps avoid legal issues and fines while demonstrating a commitment to environmental standards.

  • Sustainability

    It ensures the proper use of water resources, contributing to the preservation of local ecosystems.
