GeoServices’ professional staff has completed
hundreds of ground water
studies for our clients. Typically, the work includes hydrogeologic assessments
and water budget studies to determine the availability, dependability and
quality
of the resource available for development. To meet our clients needs for ground
water resources, potential well sites are identified and evaluated and drilling
programs implemented.
Our Source Development Services include:
Well Siting
Through the use of sound scientific principles, GeoServices increases the probability of locating a well to achieve desired yield. GeoServices, Ltd. evaluates regional and local hydrogeologic conditions; performs fracture trace analysis; field checks sites for technical merits, logistical suitability, and proximity to existing infrastructure; and ranks the sites based on potential yield, anticipated water quality, field characteristics, and proximity to
known or suspected contaminant sources.
Well Construction / Drilling
Oversight
During well drilling, our professional staff is on-site to log the well
and identify key water bearing zones; provide our expertise concerning well depth and adequacy of yield; perform field testing of water quality to assess changes
and suitability; and to assure adherence to drilling specifications. We are
experienced in a variety of drilling methods. Our experience enables us to complete
exploratory wells in difficult drilling environments and to design and complete efficient,
high capacity production wells.
Aquifer Testing and Analysis
Aquifer testing is performed to stress the well to determine the yield
which can be maintained during the productive life of the well and to ensure that the
water produced under production conditions meets drinking water standards. We design, implement, and provide oversight of aquifer tests in varying
hydrogeologic settings. We apply various analytical methods to characterize the well and aquifer. The applied testing and analysis meets the requirements of the
various regulatory agencies.
Water Supply Permitting and Reporting
GeoServices, Ltd. staff of professional hydrogeologists routinely compiles all pertinent data concerning new sources into a thorough and defensible report designed to satisfy requirements of the appropriate State regulatory agencies and various River
Basin Commissions.
Wellhead Protection Area Delineation
Our professional hydrogeologists routinely complete wellhead protection area (WHPA) delineations which range in complexity from simple volumetric calculations to rigorous computer modeling simulation. Our services to water suppliers in development of a
wellhead protection plan include all program elements from WHPA delineation and contaminant source inventory though public education and contingency planning.
Spring Development
GeoServices works with clients in the assessment and development of spring sources, including the estimated yields and potential for commercial development. We work with clients to complete the necessary testing for surface water influence to determine whether the source is ground water or surface water.
Ground Water Management / Modeling
GeoServices' professional staff has been on the cutting edge of technology
in development of appropriate mathematical management tools for water suppliers. Numerical ground water system models, using techniques developed be USGS and USEPA, are used to develop regional management criteria to achieve long-term sustainable water resources. We can apply simple to complex models to evaluate single or multi-well supplies. We routinely complete geologic/hydrogeologic assessments and water budget studies to determine the resource which is available for development. We then routinely identify potential well-sites and implement drilling programs to develop new sources which meet our clients growing needs for ground water
source development.
Solutions for Problem Wells
Our extensive experience in well development in a variety of
hydrogeological settings can help you develop a valuable ground water source previously
thought to be inadequate. Unique well construction and ground water development techniques can often save an otherwise unusable source.
