Groundwater Well Locating for West Texas Fracking Operation
Date: June 20, 2014
Site: West-Texas – undisclosed oil and gas field
Equipment: SuperStingR8 WiFi with SwitchBox112 with passive cables spaced at 6m. Dipole-dipole and strong gradient array
Software: EarthImager2D with a finite element inversion model
Results: Resistivity imaging successfully located a relatively high production water well producing approximately 125 GPM in a region where 10 GPM is common when not using resistivity imaging. Several areas more likely to cause cave in hazards for drilling equipment and/or expensive loss of drilling mud were also located nearby on the same section.
Shallow fresh water aquifers were restricted from use therefor deeper wells were preferred.
