New design of the head for an emergency observation self-flowing well

Summary

A new design of the head for an emergency observation self-flowing well of groundwater deposits is proposed. The use of the head provides for simplifying the method of eliminating spills from an emergency well that is not equipped with a flanged connection and reducing the cost of rehabilitation works. Testing the new design of the head was carried out at the emergency flowing exploration well No. 39 of the Bystrinskii potable groundwater deposit. It is shown that the introduction of the head provides for preventing the depletion of aquifers and groundwater spills from emergency wells not equipped with flanged connections, and ensuring hydrogeological monitoring of the deposits.
