Watch and see how a deep water well is bored in a limestone landscape. See the rig in action, learn how bentonite clay is used to prevent surface water from seeping in around the casing, and see what it's like when a good supply of ground water is finally hit.

Interesting and a good job explaining. Best part for me will seem strange as I was focused on the add on drill rod holders on each side of mast and how they were fabricated and how they would be used. Rig appears to be a 1970's Schramm T64 with an updated air package. Original were piston compressors. Original held only 210 ft of drill pipe but on this one has been expanded to upright storage on both sides. Very clever setup and the extra weight did not seem to be an issue with mast raising. Would love to inspect the rig in person but your video will have to do. Thanks for posting.

That first joint of pipe that you see them lowering with the lifting ring in the beginning is called your drill collar, it is a heavy wall pipe which is used for adding weight to the bit. You can see the bit is attached to it. He will add an additional drill collar to it as he gets deeper. The entire assembly is called your BHA or bottom hole assembly. The blocks is what lifts the BHA up and down only which why you need the heavy weight drill collars. What turns the drill string assembly is called a rotary or Kelly, in this case it’s a hammer rotary, where on an oil field rig we have top drives. Imagine this entire operation except 500 x larger and you have something similar to an oil field drilling rig. Minus mud pumps, mud tanks, gas busters, choke manifolds and flare system.

Love your vid!!! Had a friend who spent $800 bucks to have a well witcher tell him where to drill. He has 5 gpm at 345 feet. The contractor who drilled our off grid well told us that nobody knows where the water is and recommended a convenient spot. Our driller hit water at 140' with 30 gpm. Some people believe in witching but I'm guessing most drillers (including our contractor) think this is nonsense.

Interesting. I had a well drilled for my geothermal system last winter. They drilled down almost 400 ft and didn't find sufficient water for an open loop like we planned. But no worries, a 2nd well about 250 ft and we had plenty for a closed loop and I'm more than satisfied with how it turned out. I was not at the house most of the time they were doing their work, so nice to see it actually in progress in this video.

Our well is 1100 feet deep. It cost a small fortune to get put in. When it was getting drilled their best offer was to keep going deeper and hope to hit water. Thankfully we did hit water before the rig maxed out. Oddly enough our old well is only 600 feet deep and it's about 200 feet away from the new one at the surface. Each well has a different pH too so I think they are different aquifers. The new well water is delicious.

Hi, I gave you a thumbs up and really appreciate your video, but I am still in the dark. I see that they installed a casing in the beginning, but after that they decrease the drill bit to go through it. Then, what is the well casing vs the drill? Do they install another casing all the way down as they drill or is there just a blank hole in the ground that the pump is fed into? There is nothing mentioned here about that and how it works. Thank you though.

he’s probably guessing that answer also. I can almost Guarantee the drillers had a water “Witcher” come out Are they know the area well and did it themselvesand designate the Exact spot to drill.we used to have an ol’ timer about 80 yrs old walk around the property for hours with two 1/8” brass rods bent at perfect 90 degrees About 8 inches sticking down on one end at about 16-18 inches pointing out. he would hold his arm perfectly 90’ from his body only bend his elbows and have the brass in each hand and just ever so lightly letting them rest in his hand.. as he walk around rods will swing together and touch whenever he was over ground water.the more ground water the stronger the pull. don’t ask me how but them old timers been doing it long enough he could guess dang on the spot the exact GPM with a 99%success of at least finding water. you were at 40 gpm at 100’.not ideally @ “clean-depth”but still good volume. that’s more than my garden hose on full blast.shoot we’d drill over 1000’ for measly 5gpm(our minimum).Man I can go on and on and brings back a lot of good memories but I’ll quit rambling now.Take care

Hi Donna! Thanks for commenting. Well drillers usually have areas where they work, so there aren't a lot to choose from in any given place. I'd ask around and see what people's experiences have been. Also, you'll want a driller who will confirm a per-foot price, as well as the extras. Metal casing and cap costs extra, and the driller may be require to do some flow testing, which will cost more, too. You'll want to know these numbers ahead of time. Where do you live? The driller who did our well has been doing the work for about 40 years and is well respected. He does travel over a pretty wide area of northern Ontario, too. Bye for now and thanks for watching!

Considering buying a mountainous property, and wanted to make sure I could have a well drilled at the top of the hill even through what I presume is rock underneath. What are the limits and I assume drilling through rock isn't a problem right?

Some people use dowsing rods. If done properly you can find things underground. The thing is you have no idea what exactly it is down there. There are USGS test wells and information online that give you some information about the aquifer in your area

The well on my farm is 816 ft. deep. The pump used to sit at 550 ft. The pump went bad a year ago last June while we were on vacation. When the pump guys went to put the new pump back down, they hit something at 434 ft and couldn't get the pump any lower. Not wanting to damage the new pump or get it stuck where it couldn't be retrieved, they quit at that point. We had water but were more than 100 ft shallower than the previous depth. We starting running out of water this year and were afraid that we may have to drill a new well. We had 4 estimates from 4 different well drilling companies ranging in price from $40,000 to $50,000. about 438 per ft. just for the drilling. One of the companies had a camera and suggested that we may want to pull the pump and send a camera down to see what may be the problem. We did that. I recently did a short video of that experience on my you tube channel.

I would guess that depending on the average water table depth in your area - maybe your farm is an outlier - most drilling contractors don't even have that much drill pipe and casing on hand. The high prices probably are being inflated by the fact that they need to rent more drill pipe third party and source double the casing they normally have on hand. 439' static water level is extremely uncommon for a lot of north America from what I've read .... very very deep.

@@safety_sid , Hi Sid, we have 3 other wells within 5 miles of me that also have deep wells. The deepest one is just over 1000 feet. The others are in the upper 800’s. Around 60 ft deeper than mine. There are no records of my well from when it was drilled. It used to be pumped by a windmill which puts it somewhere in the 100 year old range. There is a video on my channel of the well company sending the camera down the well. Feel free to watch that one.

I live in an area that I don't think would require a very deep well. I have a couple folks in my area that has added an outside well. I would like an outside well just for my outside water usage since water and sewer are expensive here. Would you have any rough idea on the total cost? Thanks
@saneconsulting
@saneconsulting 2 роки тому
A water well can cost anywhere between 5 and $50k depending on location, depth, ground material, water table depth etc etc. I would guess a well such as the one in this video would cost ~$20k.

Our Well Drilling Crew was at about 120ft when they say that they either hit sand and it collapsed and filled the hole or that something called "Cup caking" occurred. Anyway they were at it for hours trying to get the pipe to circulate(turn). They still have an estimated 380ft to go. They finally left for the day. Today is May 10th, 2021. HELP

if they lost circulation then that means they stopped clearing cuttings out the top and their air was dispersing into the formation. losing rotation would imply losing the ability to turn

@baileylineroad
@baileylineroad 2 роки тому
Good Morning! I can't say how many gallons were used during the drilling process, but the tanker truck that held the water had a tank that was more than 1000 gallons. So the process took less than that.My guess is that it probably took less than 750 gallons. I hope this helps.
