About Us

Built on Decades of Field Expertise

K.E.Y. Engineering PLC is an Ethiopian water-supply and groundwater-development company established in 2010 and delivering projects since 2011. It was built to close long-standing gaps in Ethiopia's drilling sector (aging rigs, frequent breakdowns, and shortages of qualified crews) by combining reliable equipment, skilled teams, and disciplined long-hour drilling operations.

We handle the full cycle of groundwater work: study and design, hydrogeological and geophysical survey, drilling of deep and shallow boreholes, well construction and pump testing, and the supply of related materials.
