Issues That Can Occur While Drilling Wells
“There are no perfect drill holes, or drill rigs.” I have heard this more than once from multiple drillers. What does it mean?…FIND OUT HERE!
Deep Bedrock Wells for Municipal Use: A Series on the Process - #4) Well Gravel Packing & Grouting
Welcome to the fourth installment in our well drilling series following the construction of Monument Well 10 by Layne, A Granite Company and Lytle Water Solutions! In the first blog we talked about how the borehole for the well is drilled. In the second blog we discussed the basics of geophysical logging and well design, and in the third blog we discussed the installation of the well casing and screen in the borehole. Now that the well has been set to total depth in the borehole, it is time to go over the process of finishing the well completion with the gravel packing and grouting process.
Deep Bedrock Wells for Municipal Use: A Series on the Process - #3) Well Installation Procedures
After completing the well design, the next step in the process is the installation of the well itself into the borehole. The screen schedule specifies what depth intervals should be screened, and what depth intervals should be solid pipe casing, This blog discusses well screen, casing, installation and completion.
Deep Bedrock Wells for Municipal Use: A Series on the Process - #2) Geophysical Logging & Well Design
This is the second installment in the LWS well drilling series. In the first blog we talked about how the borehole for the well is drilled. Once the drilling is complete to the total depth of the borehole, it is geophysically logged. In this blog we will discuss the basics of geophysical logging and the well design obtained from the logs.
Deep Bedrock Wells for Municipal Use: A Series on the Process - #1) Drilling
In 2021 LWS had a well drilling project in the Town of Monument with drilling company Layne, a Granite Company, to drill an Arapahoe aquifer well for municipal use. During this project LWS documented the process and produced blogs regarding seven distinct steps of well drilling as they occurred. The processes covered in this series are…READ MORE HERE!
