Exploratory Deep Borehole Sampling
Sampling groundwater from exploratory boreholes can be a challenge due to their depth, remote locations, and purging needs – that is, drilling fluid used during the drilling of the borehole creates a water column that needs to be purged prior to sampling in order to attain a representative sample. In deep boreholes, this can mean that hundreds or thousands of gallons of water needs to be removed prior to collecting a sample.
Monitoring Well Dilution Test
The Monitoring Well Dilution Test determines the horizontal water velocity flowing through specific lithology in a well. The test can be performed in a monitoring well or open borehole. The data from this test is used to determine estimates of hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity in the formational materials surrounding the well, as well as contaminant fate and transport estimates.
