Water in the desert... Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Knagur Green: Due to no response from the CO after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported. Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

If the CO feels that this cache has been archived in error please feel free to contact me via email quoting the GC number concerned

Thank you for understanding

Geocache Description:

Qatar is a hot, water scarce country and clever ways are required to provide water to remote areas.


The State of Qatar's economic development strategy has until recently focused on building the infrastructure required to maximise production in the energy sector. The National Development Strategy 2011-16 (NDS 2011-16) and Qatar National Vision 2030 (QNV 2030) provide an overarching trajectory for this growth. The successful 2022 FIFA World Cup bid has given additional momentum and a firm deadline for many major  road  construction projects.

Road infrastructure development in rural areas has also received attention. However, water is a scarce commodity.

This geocache is hidden next to a water supply station, consisting of a borehole, electrical pump and two water loading arms that are used to refill water tankers. Follow the coordinates to find the cache; pay specific attention to the water pump house.
