Dewatering Study  Near Leadville, CO

Dewatering Study Near Leadville, CO

A project involving hydrophysical logging (HpL) under ambient and pumping conditions was used to evaluate the vertical distribution of hydraulic conductivity in a mine borehole. The corehole was in a strategic location on site: drilled into a fault intersecting two separate geologic units assumed to be of significantly different heads. The expected yield of the corehole […]

Sonar Applications in Submerged Mine Workings

Sonar Applications in Submerged Mine Workings

COLOG has adapted a multi-frequency profiling sonar probe that can be logged from any 4-conductor standard geophysical logging rig, for imaging submerged mine workings, large diameter shafts, raised bores, karst environments and large diameter boreholes. Much of the data collected from this new technology has been on high-profile projects – environmental studies at mine sites […]

Rio Grande River Basin Horizontal Groundwater Characterization

Rio Grande River Basin Horizontal Groundwater Characterization

COLOG was hired to characterize the horizontal movement of groundwater through the Rio Grande River Basin . This project proved challenging due to the complex hydrogeology and lack of historical geologic data from past drilling programs. In the Rio Grande Basin, many wells flow artesian at hundreds, to sometimes thousands of gallons per minute. Other wells show […]

Great Lakes Hydrophysics and Crosshole Packer Testing

Great Lakes Hydrophysics and Crosshole Packer Testing

A Great Lakes region project included Hydrophysical Logging (HpL), Wireline Straddle-Packer (WSP) testing, optical televiewer and Corehole Dynamic Flowmeter (CDFM) in angled and vertical coreholes up to 3,000 feet deep. Tools were all run from a standard geophysical rig. Televiewer and flow-logging were performed to evaluate the vertical distribution of permeability in the coreholes and […]
