Exploratory well construction

“WorleyParsons Canada Ltd. recently worked with Good Well Drilling at DFO's Kitimat Hatchery.  Two 6", 150' deep exploratory wells were drilled using their 22W Bucyrus Erie Cable Tool rig to look for a deep, high-yield groundwater aquifer in overburden.

The professional manner in which Denis Caron and his helper Clarence Moberg operated the drilling rig and assisted our site geologist was a credit to their extensive experience.  The target aquifer was successfully identified in both wells and, through the systematic collection of formation materials and attention to rig behavior and drill penetration rates, the overburden hydrogeology was thoroughly characterized.  Good Well Drilling's Cable Tool rig was well suited for retrieving formational samples and other critical information from the aquifer's high-yield zone - a task that would have challenged most air-driven drilling systems.

I have no hesitation in recommending Good Well Drilling and their Cable Tool drilling system to other prospective clients looking for detailed hydro geological information in similar settings.  Good Well Drilling were truly a pleasure to work with.”
