If you’re drilling a well, doing a drought could infect your water
Great event, definitely the highlight of the year for education.
Absolutely! We need more solid, bold, strong regulations!
Hi, great video. Is it possible to pause mud rotary drilling and install a temporary casing (standpipe) advanced into a potential aquifer target to ascertain groundwater level?
Dear NGWA can you help me. I need the formula for traveltime in phreatic aquifer in ambiant groundflow. I only have everything for a confined situation. But I can't find anywhere the formula for tge phreatic situation. Not even in my master Hydrology lecture.
I know this was posted 7 yr ago but i have to aay EPA, county and state government are uselss to educate and protect people. I moved into a home with a well, which is, btw 50ft from city hookup. It was "tested" safe to moved in. What they dont tell you is all theh test is bacteria. I was sick with GI issues, losing weight, hair turning grey at age 37. Went from athletic runnjng lifting since age 11, to heart issues. Skin and bone. Pale and almost filing for disability. Over 200 dr appointments later and hesrt issues including... i found a fucntionak med NP who gave me a urine test. I was in high levels of arsenic and uranium. As a medical worker myself and now a patient, i can say the western medicine fails to lower arsenic being okay in the body. And more heavy metals needed tested. My county health department claim my water shows nothing. Them, EPA BOTH ignoring me. I took another test with urine 1 month later after i started drinking bottled. The levels are almoat nothing. My memory is coming back. My energy. My skin color. Im currently healing from SIBO caused by uranium leaving the body 95% through the bowls. I've gaines 2 pounds back. Labs are hard to find to test. Btw i never was sick prior to this. I had an immune system people wished for. Now im always sick. Government fails as always
Is it possible to have the link to the entire course offered, specifically the 50 hours mentioned in the description?
I’m here today April 9th 2024.. I’m a plumber. I’m very interested and am listening to you. I would love to ask you a question about something I’ve been seeing for the first time in 20 years. I’ve tried to search but can’t get an answer. It’s not a big deal but I think I’m on the right track and it’s freaking interesting to me
Amazing session... Well described, broad concepts made simple, easy to understand. Thanks
Free Palestine free Palestine
great video,,studying for asbog FG , NOT PG this is is perfect for getting the fundamentals..
This helped me understand my hydro geology class better 😅
The job I enjoyed the most being a pum testing water technician ❤
Your channel offers a lot of valuable insights.
i wonder what this man thinks of the current state of man made climate change
Cable tool rig is best but is really slow.
Thanks.

Thank You🌸
Is rotary drilling similar to the exploratory drilling ?
This is great education

This is Samalie from Uganda. This was very helpful.
In Australia we use to refer to these rigs as mud bangers

Do I need an electric vent? To get rid of methane or as a vent out, the top of the. Tank surface
Thank you for this viewpoint. Evidently, this phenomenom have not been sufficiently and carefully studied worldwide. Close scientific cooporation between experts frome various countries will ensure an optimal for future generations. I should like to express my deep gratitude of the specific approach and its significance in 2023. Europa - Croatia
By July nearly every year, our well gets so low we can only water the lawn with a single small sprinkler for about 15 minutes before pressure drops and the pump starts short cycling. (The house is on county water. We use the well for outdoor watering. Our well guy tried, last summer, to lower the pump but found it’s already on the bottom. I’m pretty sure that means the well has silted up over the 38 years since it was drilled. Originally 228 feet deep. I asked our well guy (whose dad drilled it originally) about boring or blowing it out. He said it would be better to drill a new one. I’m not convinced this one can’t be cleaned out. What are your thoughts?
I have an 18 year old drilled well which I believe is fouled with minerals. I have manganese in my well because my filters turn black and my well used to be pretty darn good but now I can't run the hose for more than fifteen or twenty minutes and we routinely run out of water if we wash clothes and take too many showers which is pretty easy to do on a normal basis as we are a family of five. I have four 35 gal pressure tanks in my basement as well as a Pentair pump protector so that if I do run out of water my pump system can work all night trying to replenish the tanks for the next mornings use. I actually work for a well pump company and they've advised me to get it Hydro fractured or get another well drilled. I'm told nobody cleans Wells anymore but I am also not convinced that this well cannot be clean chemically somehow and returned to near new condition. I'm not spending $4,000 getting something Hydro fractures or $15,000 having a new well drilled when there may be a $500 chemical solution.
Thank You. Well done!
Much respect and love to Brandon! Proud of you man.
My dad and I drilled down the 6 to 700 ft with a 36 slight clone Cable in auger
I run afoundation rig drilling dewatering wells across this great nation of ours and on the weekends run a 22w with my family and enjoy the experience and the knowledge I get from the older method. Thanks for the video and I agree it's a tradition we shouldn't let go.
I can tell this presenter is passionate about their work.
Mr. Wygal is spot on! Drives have come such a long way over the years. Not only are they so much easier to program and start up, the functions they can perform and the protection they can provide to the overall system makes it an easy decision for all applications. And, not for just for grid tied systems. Solar powered pumping systems and applications are now nearly unlimited and drives are a big part of that.
Carbon Isotopes definitely indicate that this change in climate is from anthropogenic influence.
i love this professor
Dr. Laton says he does not know what the human impact on climate change is (12:09). Even 10 years ago we were crystal clear about the amount of carbon humans had released into the atmosphere. NASA reported it, we knew it and we knew it had warming effect on the atmosphere. @NGWATUBE Has Dr.Richard Laton been brought up to speed on this? "By volume, the dry air in Earth’s atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. Yet while these greenhouse gases make up just a tiny percentage of our atmosphere, they play major roles in trapping Earth’s radiant heat and keeping it from escaping into space, thereby warming our planet and contributing to Earth’s greenhouse effect." climate.nasa.gov/news/2915/the-atmosphere-getting-a-handle-on-carbon-dioxide/#:~:text=The%20concentration%20of%20carbon%20dioxide,it%20was%20near%20370%20ppm.
Does the casing permanently stay in the hole or is it pulled up to replace the cutting edge which I assume wears out after awhile.?
We need to focus on the term “true cost” which would emphasize environmental cost, today, and for the future.
I used to be a Driller myself. I have dilled mostly Oil / Gas Wells. Also drilled some Water Wells, Blast Holes, Environmental Wells, Coal Mine Degassification Wells, etc. I pretty well understand how we can have Artesian Wells in the Lower Elevations of the Hill & Valley Country.BUT NOT in Flat Ground Country. Are Artesian Wells "even possible' in Flat Ground Country? Could the water flow a Great Distance from the nearest Hill or Mountain to feed an Artesian Well far away? May I "assume" the higher the point of Recharge on a Mountain, the higher the Hydrostatic Pressure to push the Water a farther distance. BTW, I live in Tennessee in an area with a lot of Karst Topography.
On the slide at 7:50, are you seriously trying to equate Mn (Manganese) with Mg (Magnesium)? You are showing a picture of Mg rich foods and saying Mn can be good for you as if taking Mn is like eating nuts you have pictured. Please tell me you know the difference and just slipped up because either way, it questions your credibility to a varying degree.
This is funny to me... Not your video but the full circle I've come to land here. I was watching a video by a man named Donnie Laws about Applachian history and he'd come across a very old quarry which he says was drilled with steam so I began searching for info on what and how this was done and with what equipment. When I was steered towards search terms to help me find what I was looking for I found your channel. I hadn't realized yet why or from where my curiosity originated till I heard you speaking and began reading comments of young men in training. I went to Alaska in the 70's to homestead and landed as an apprentice after job corps trained me up. Eventually I was placed on a 36" diamond bit rig used to drill pilings for the Valdez docks. I must admit I don't remember much about the equipment or the operation of it now, partly due to a sustained brain injury. It's great to see your video and feel like learning what I can about this subject. Thank you very much
Congratulations, Jason! I am so proud of you, and your journey with NGWA!

Yes.. absolutely perfect . Promise
7:48 Manganese (Mn) is NOT Magnesium (Mg). Manganese is bad, Magnesium is good
