Casing pipes
From WaiWiki
EcoSan Ghana is a non-profit NGO that aims at providing ecological toilets and clean water to rural Ghana, particularly in Atiwa, Fanteakwa, and Upper Denkyira East.
After drilling the boreholes, we need casing pipes to prevent the holes from caving in. We bought 100 meters of casing pipes in China; total costs including shipment and bank transfer fee: €1.171.95. We need to wait to know the local transport costs (from Port Tema to Dunkwa-on-Offin, plus from Dunkwa-on-Offin to location) to calculate the actual total costs per meter.

Tema is a very inefficient, expensive port. Importing goods in Ghana is therefore very expensive.
