Groundwater Drilling

Groundwater Drilling
SUPRA has drilled numerous wells for various purposes to clients’ satisfaction. During this time, SUPRA could, and still can, always benefit from its decades of experience and its knowledge of well drilling and construction. This enables the us to carry out drilling and completion professionally even in the most difficult project.
As an EPC, SUPRA offers an integrated service for the design and construction of water wells, including:
- Design – We carry out geological and hydrogeological desk studies, water resource assessments and the design of water wells
- Drilling– We act as drilling contractors for the installation of wells by a wide range of methods, to ensure the best operational capability of water wells
- Maintenance and rehabilitation – We provide rehabilitation services for wells infrastructure, either in response to operational problems, or as part of a planned pro-active maintenance regime
Exploratory Drilling
Pilot Exploratory borehole drilling is essentially an exploratory exercise intended to gather site-specific information that is used to characterize the stratigraphy and type of geologic units that underlie the well site. Its value is that it provides the project team (i.e., driller, design engineer and/or hydrogeologist, and well owner) information needed to finalize the well design to meet the actual field conditions
After preliminary evaluation of all available hydrogeologic, geologic and geophysical report, specific sites are selected for exploratory drilling. Small diameter test wells are drilled, and then converted to observation wells for use during aquifer testing.
Test results from this well are collected and correlated for further evaluation of the static water level, thickness, and ground water bearing properties of each geologic unit. Additional data may be gathered by using geophysical techniques.
