This training provides a detailed understanding of the principles and practice of borehole design and maintenance, including design, drilling, geophysical investigation, test pumping, and long-term maintenance. The focus is on water supply boreholes, although many of the techniques apply equally to other types of boreholes used for investigation, monitoring or water quality sampling.
By the end of this training the participants will have gained:
- An introduction to a variety of types of boreholes and wells, their use, design, and operation
- A practical introduction to the main methods of drilling and borehole investigation techniques used to assess aquifer and well properties in the context of developing successful water supply boreholes
- An introduction to methods of optimising borehole design, including selection of appropriate technology and types of pumps, well and aquifer development, test pumping
- An awareness of the need for long term maintenance and rehabilitation of water supply boreholes, and details of appropriate methods
