The Well Design Guide provides technical information on the different criteria used for modern water well design and the Well Design Toolkit contains easy-to-use calculators for water well design. Together these can be used to:

  • Carry out water well design calculations.
  • Produce an optimal, least cost water well design.
  • Check the condition and efficiency of existing water wells.
  • Help resolve legal disputes involving water well design problems.
  • Estimate capital, loan and operating costs of a water well.
  • Prepare a Bill of Quantities for water well tenders.
  • Provide training in water well design techniques.
 

Well Design Guide

Over 70 pages of technical information on the different components of a water well, well design criteria and sources of further information.

PDF e-Book

 

Well Design Toolkit

Over 30 calculators with supporting charts and tables for water well design calculations in either metric (SI)  or US units.
