ESTIMATION OF GROUNDWATER ENDANGERING ON THE BASIS OF TECHNICAL DIAGNOSTICS OF HYDROGEOLOGICAL BOREHOLES WITH THE WELL LOGGING METHODS
Journal Title: Biuletyn Państwowego Instytutu Geologicznego - Year 2013, Vol 456, Issue 456
Abstract
Boreholes and the resulting wells, piezometers or borehole heat exchangers are an intrusion into the groundwater resource, and their inappropriate construction can result in high damage to quality and quantity of groundwater resources. Technical regulations and rules dictate a responsible use of our groundwater resources, but unfortunately, the compliance from various sides is not always accurate. Especially, the recent observed boom for renewable energy from the Earth's heat shows that strict control of such constructions is essential for the benefit of groundwater resources for future generations. In this article, the technical analyses of wells and piezometers based on the borehole geophysical methods are presented, the typical defects of the underground infrastructure are listed, as well as examples of the analysis are discussed.
