After drilling a dry bore based on a dowser´s stake, we were asked to survey in an area of generally deep water in unfavorable geology.

After mud drilling through our zone and saying there was no water, we insisted on proper work out resulting in a double-digit well. That´s why we recommend rotary with top drive to case as you drill until reaching our target depth!

Well next door drilled to 650 feet producing very low quality, sulfur-smelling water. Client´s old well was low volume and quality. PWT operator had less than half an acre to survey.

Driller resisted going deep based on results just across the fence. Struck first water from St. Pete sandstone at 500 feet as predicted. Stopped at 550 feet - one hundred feet less than the neighbour - showing a high volume of potable water!

Difficulty topography and granite boulders make this area tough to survey and especially drilling rig acces.

Driller struck water at the depth predicted to produce high quality water for the homestead. Client said: "Without you guy´s it would have been very difficult for me to get high quality water in this tough area!".

In an area of steep gorges where driller find it difficult to get water in volume, Gamma and passive seismic correlated over a deep and rising potential water-bearing fissure.

After drilling just 150 feet they struck a fracture that released water at c. 60 psi producing a free flowing well. Quote the driller: "I never have seen anything like this before!".

Housing developer used two dowsers but unable to achieve project water for community well. One well went 1000 feet dry bore! Small lot surveys limited by individual lot perc zones.

Driller struck water at first stake on the third day of ground surveys, producing project water. Developer reverted to community well plan rather than 23 residential wells, saving $$$$ on drilling costs.

Shallow wells in the area showing higher salinity; deeper wells are hit or miss on the fractured granite.

IN an area of single-digit gpm well volumes, ground survey highlighted a strong gamma trend. Passive seismics revealed an excellent structure 150 feet west of the   dowser´s stake.

Drilling struck water at the depth predicted in high volume. Client said: "I will refer you to all my neighbors!".

RV Park & Resort investment on 230 acres was held up for years due to lack of project water.

DR-24 rig drilled 700 feet into granite from the surface releasing water as predicted starting at 600 feet. Driller reported 140 gpm from small pump truck. Client now contracting for bigger pump test and second well. Water quality showing c. 1000 ppm before well clean out and extensive pumping. Land value just increased by millions as project can move forward.

Potential for cavities in predominant limestone. One encountered at 230 feet as highlighted in the cross-section.

Drilled to 40 feet where clay was encountered at bottom of aquifer. Well was being considered for abandonment until cavity sealed off.

Very small parcel.

"Results are very good, this is a great well and we were lucky to find it on such a small area!"

Client had dug or drilled a dozen wells over the years with only a trickle to show for it. This was the last attempt before selling.

Our land is very dry. In the past we had to watch not to pump too much water from our old well and we would only let it trickle out to save water. So hoping to find large amounts of water felt like a miracle. 

"We had the pump turned on all night, it kept overflowing our tank and it's still pouring out. It's a very, very good well!"

The old well is shallow with high arsenic levels.

This well produced 80-100 gpm after reaching water at 320 feet. The driller reports 300 gpm after going to 340 feet depth. Static head is just 10 feet below the surface. Water analysis shows TDS of only 180 ppm.

Existing well had become unproductive. Higher elevation in dry area with no deep wells.

"We are celebrating! We completed after the extra 40ft and the well test was at over 80 gpm! This is a grand celebration of life. As water is life and a testament of abundance."

Low volume wells in the area with hard water.

Driller released sufficient water at the top of the fracture zone in mapped inferred fault. Client had sufficient water for irrigation and decided not to drill to 500+ feet to release potentially primary - higher quality - water.

Shallow water east of the water but deep and difficult west of the fault.

Passive seismics revealed fissure with deep connectivity rising to less than 300 feet. Driller completed this and neighbor´s well we also located, both showing less than 300 feet to water!

Tough area to find good wells.

Large farming colonies we worked with have mostly drilled shallow wells based on witchers. Drillers don´t like going beyond 500 feet depth because of potential for coal-bed methane, requiring expensive blowout prevention (BoP).

Some neighbors had drilled dry bores.

Client said "Ryan is incredibly knowledgeable. Drilling is so expensive! I can't imagine drilling a well without Ryan telling me where to do it. Would recommend him any day!"

Property required a well in a cold-semi arid desert environment.

Client lived in Cochise County and wanted to start a family-run avocado farm.

"So the drill operator says we got good water, with approximately 40gpm—perfect for growing avocados on our small homestead farm. Thank you Primary Water Well Locators!"

Area is known for saline wells.

This was a small property with a home and farm that needed a new and sustainable well behind their shop.

Client told that there was no water south of a fault that bordered the north side.

The driller for the client said "This is truly incredible, Ryan! We hit 60gpm at 320'!" The client was totally amazed at the results as this was a challenging area to find a good well.

Preliminary map indicted there were multiple site possibilities.

Pal Pauer had predicted where to find a good well site and we ended up at the same spot!

"Drillers went to 160', achieved 25gpm and wanted to stop, feeling that was plenty. I talked them into going another 20' and the flow was much more than 60gpm at the 180' you originally predicted."

Most wells in area are low GPM.

Located a well site on edge of hill in an area of Lewis Flats, CA, a place known according to the locals, for "no water".

Drillers said "It's the best well we have drilled out here in the last 40 years! We found a lot of water—about double what we hit at 100', thank you so much!"
