The Well Rig arrived in Bombardopolis safely. There were many onlookers and volunteers from the neighborhood during the drilling. After reaching approximately 100 feet down, part of the machine broke and fell in the hole that they were working on. This caused a 3-day delay until part of the machine that fell was retrieved. Theo and his team managed to drill down to approximately 250 feet but water was still not in sight.

Theo and Jean returned to the U.S. a week later, putting the project on hold to prepare for the Missionary team that would be arriving in Bombardopolis at the end of March. Upon arrival at the OIH Center in March, Theo and his team resumed the Well Project. They struck water between 325-350 feet.
