Well Construction Supervision and Observation
GGI personnel are involved in the drilling and construction of all wells we design to ensure that the completed well conforms to design specifications. Depending on the nature of the project, staff may be onsite 24/7 (for large, municipal well projects) or may check in daily during drilling and be on-site for the duration of well construction. While on-site, project staff are involved in:
- Logging cuttings to identify potentially productive intervals
- Monitoring drilling fluid properties
- Confirming borehole deviation measurements to ensure a straight borehole
- Measuring and recording all well completion materials
- Verifying the location of screened and blank casing intervals during construction
