Finding Well Water in California.


Finding Well Water in California


Finding well water in California for a groundwater well, can be not only frustrating, but very expensive.

As anyone who has ever drilled a dry well can tell you.  It would be better if there was a way to find groundwater scientifically before drilling a well.  Well...now you can!

Find Water First Inc. dba Southwest Groundwater Surveyors are here to help.  Our seismoelectric instruments and groundwater surveying method. were developed to be a portable version of a technology  that was developed in the oil industry.  
We have the only method for seeing groundwater prior to drilling a well.  And we can see water underground to an average depth of 1500 feet below ground surface.

Locating water for a well in Southern California, where aquifers are often no more than very narrow rock fractures through which groundwater flows, is always a challenge for geologists and hydrologists and well drillers alike.  That is why the services of Southwest Groundwater Surveyors is so valuable.  Our Seismo-electric instruments and methods help take the guesswork out of whether or not to drill, and where to drill your water well.  


Savings on well development:  

If you are planning to drill a water well for your water needs, call Southwest Groundwater Surveyors before you have your well drilled, and find out how you can save on the cost of well development by getting it right the first time.  Don't take a chance on a dry or low yield well. Call for a free consultation today!    



Testimonials:

Lucerne Valley, California  Mark F. of Lucerne Valley, California contacted us to see if we could find fresh water on his property. The area is known for having salty water in the top 200 feet below ground surface. Southwest Groundwater Surveyors was referred to Mark By Greg Solomon of Solomon Drilling and Pump Service in Lucerne Valley. After conducting a series of seismoelectric tests on Marks property it was determined that two sites showed promise of fresh water if drilled to a depth of 490'. Mark just called to inform us that Solomon Drilling and Pump Svc. has developed the well after drilling to 485'. The well casing was not perforated for the first 200' to prevent the salty water from contaminating the fresh water. Mark is enjoying 30 gallons per minute of fresh clean water in an area where only salty wells have been drilled before.

Johnson Valley California:

Bill K. hired Southwest Groundwater Surveyors to locate the optimal well drilling site on his 20 acre lot in Johnson Valley Ca.  Today after six months, Bill called to inform us that he finally had his well drilled by Solomon Drilling and Pump.  The estimated depth of 440 feet was spot on and he is enjoying a 50 gallon per minute well.

Finding Well Water Is What We Do.

Do you need a water well and don't know where to drill a well, or how deep to drill a well?  At Southwest Groundwater Surveyor's finding well water is what we do well.

We have just returned from groundwater surveys to find well water in New Mexico and Utah where we have successfully located several good water wells on ranches, where  they are struggling to keep the water supply to meet the demand for the crops and cattle.

Please contact us on our website www.findwaterfirst.com or call 800-394-6207 for your free consultation.  Why take a chance on a dry well.

We use scientific, seismo-electric instruments and methods to locate the aquifer, and determine the well drilling depth and the expected well water flow (yield) before drilling begins.

Finding Well Water is What We Do Well.

Ideal Conditions for a Groundwater Survey Prior to Well Drilling

Southwest Groundwater Surveyors


    Having a reasonable expectation of finding well water prior to drilling a well is a great benefit for the prospective well owner.  Southwest Groundwater Surveyor uses the seismoelectric method for locating the optimal  well drilling location.

    Briefly, the  seismoelectric method, sometimes called electroseismic or Electro Kinetic Seismology (EKS) makes use of a phenomenon, known since the 1950’s, whereby an electrical signal is produced when a seismic wave encounters water within rock pores, such as is the case for an aquifer.  Although the basic Physics of the method has been understood for many years, and numerous field demonstrations have been completed showing the feasibility of the method, it was not until 1996, when a company called Groundflow Ltd. and later AqualocateLLC developed and patented very specific electronics and associated techniques required to measure and interpret the EKS signal, making the method more practical.  Whereby using these techniques, the EKS signal is recorded using a data recording geometry that significantly minimizes naturally occurring electrical noise.  Groundflow Ltd developed the instrumentation to both record this signal and to process the data.  Therefore allowing the existence of groundwater, (if present) to be inferred along with estimates of the depth and the yield of the aquifer.


   Accuracy of interpretation of groundwater data may often be increased if a local well is available where the aquifer depth, thickness and flow rate are known.  In this case a sounding can be conducted close to the well, which gives us a better velocity and acoustic attenuation model for the particular underlying rock matrix. 

   The ideal conditions for a groundwater survey are as follows...

  1. Access to the desired test sites on the property by a 4 wheel drive pickup truck.
  2. Survey sites must be at least 50 feet away from underground high voltage lines.
  3. Surveyors must be able to penetrate the ground surface to a three foot depth.
