The area of Burg is located in the north-western part of Bombardopolis at an altitude exceeding 500 m. The well is located on the edge of the football field. The area is densely populated and suffers from a chronic lack of drinking and non-potable water.

The borehole is 46 meters deep. The well was originally fitted with a foot pump Vergnet. Since 2016 a new hand pump India has been put into operation.

The drilling mission, during which the well Martina was built, was financially supported by a permanent UN mission in Haiti, Minustah.
