Water is the source of life and access to sustainable underground water resources is one of the greatest challenges of mankind in this century. With the reduction of the surface water level and successive droughts, the need to dig deep and semi-deep wells is felt more than ever. But is it possible to dig without having detailed information about the underground layers? The answer is definitely no. Blind drilling not only entails heavy costs, but also does not guarantee the possibility of reaching water. This is where geophysical water discovery enters the field as a scientific and engineering solution.
In this article, we are going to examine in detail water discovery by geophysical method and explain the vital role of specialist companies such as Zerf Kavan Plata Qare in the success of water exploration projects.
What is geophysical water discovery?
Water discovery by geophysics method is a science in which underground structures are studied using the physical properties of the earth. This method works like an MRI scan for the earth. Without the need to split or dig the ground, advanced geophysical devices provide experts with valuable information by sending electric, magnetic or seismic waves into the ground and receiving their reflections.
In the process of discovering water by geophysical method, parameters such as specific electrical resistance of rocks, porosity, permeability, and material of layers are checked. Water, especially fresh water, has a different electrical behavior than dry rock or dense clay soils. By analyzing the data obtained from the operation of water exploration by geophysical method, the specialists of Kavan Deep Company can determine with high accuracy the exact location of the water table, its depth and even the approximate quality of the water (saltiness or sweetness).
Why should we use geophysical water discovery?
Many farmers and industrial owners still rely on traditional methods or even unscientific methods such as wood dozing. But the fact is that geophysical water discovery is the only scientifically approved method that can minimize the risk of drilling. In the following, we discuss the reasons for the importance of using this method:
1. Significant reduction in drilling costs
Drilling a well is very expensive. If you start drilling without geophysical water detection studies and you hit bedrock or the well is dry, millions of Tomans of your investment will be wasted. The cost of conducting geophysical studies is very small compared to the cost of drilling a dry well.
2. Determining the exact location and depth of the well
Using geophysical water exploration, engineers can determine the best spot on your land for drilling. Also, this method tells you how deep you need to dig to reach the best layer of ooze. This work prevents extra and useless excavations.
3. Detection of water quality
One of the important features of geophysical water discovery is the possibility of separating saltwater layers from fresh water. This issue is very critical in areas where there is saltwater intrusion. Kavan Continental Plateau Deep Company makes this separation with high precision using modern equipment.
4. Conservation of underground water resources
Unauthorized and unscientific excavations cause damage to underground water tables. Discovering water by geophysical method helps to exploit water resources in a sustainable and principled way.
Different methods of water discovery by geophysics method
Geophysical science has many branches, but in the field of water exploration, some methods are more useful. Experts of Cavan Continental Plateau Deep Company, depending on the geological conditions of your area, suggest the best method for discovering water by geophysical method.
Geoelectric method (specific resistance)
This method is the most common and widely used method for geophysical water detection in Iran and the world. In this method, electric current is injected into the layers of the earth by the electrodes that are hammered on the surface of the earth. Then the created potential difference is measured.
Since water is a conductor of electricity and dry rocks are insulators, changes in the specific resistance of the layers indicate the presence of water. Advanced devices that are used in geophysical water discovery and geoelectrical methods can separate layers of clay, sand, gravel and bedrock.
Electromagnetic (EM) method
In some areas where the surface of the earth is rocky and hard and it is not possible to beat the electrode, or for quick discoveries in large areas, the electromagnetic method is used to discover water by geophysical method. This method works based on the induction of magnetic fields.
Seismography method
Although this method is mostly used in oil exploration, it is sometimes used to determine the depth of bedrock and the thickness of alluvium in large geophysical water exploration projects.
The stages of carrying out the water discovery project by geophysical method by Deep Kavan Continental Plateau Company
In order for the geophysical water discovery operation to achieve the desired result, a systematic process must be followed. Cavan Continental Plateau Deep Company with years of experience, implements these steps as follows:
- Preliminary studies and geology: Before sending the team to the area, the geological and satellite maps of the area are examined to get a general view of the situation in the area.
- Field visit: Company experts are sent to the project site and check the topographic conditions and land features. be made This step is very effective in the accuracy of water discovery by geophysical method.
- Field operations (data collection): The technical team collects data from underground using the most advanced geoelectrical devices. Accuracy at this stage guarantees the accuracy of the results of water discovery by geophysical method.
- Data processing and interpretation: Raw data is analyzed by specialized software and senior engineers. This is where the difference between a professional company like Cavan Continental Plateau Deep Company and non-specialists is clear. Interpretation of water discovery data by geophysical method requires a high level of geological knowledge. Presentation of the final report: Finally, a written report including the proposed drilling location, proposed depth, and prediction of the earth's layers is presented to the client.
The importance of equipment and software in geophysical water discovery
The accuracy of the geophysical water discovery operation is highly dependent on two factors: calibrated and accurate equipment, and up-to-date software. Using old or handmade devices, which unfortunately have increased in the market, has many errors.
Zerf Kavan Flat Qare Company is committed to use the latest equipment in the world in geophysical water exploration projects. These equipments are able to remove environmental noises and record real signals from the depths of the earth. Also, the software used in this company for two-dimensional and three-dimensional modeling of underground water tables have the highest international standards.
The difference between traditional water finding and water discovery by geophysical method
You may have heard that some people claim to find water using pomegranate sticks or brass rods. You should know that scientifically, there is no connection between the movement of wood and the presence of water at a depth of 200 meters. These methods are completely random.
On the other hand, discovering water by geophysical method is based on the principles of physics and mathematics. You cannot risk hundreds of millions of drilling capital by guessing. Geophysical Water Discovery gives you a road map. Just as you need an architectural plan to build a building, you also need a basement plan to dig a well, which can only be obtained by discovering water using geophysics.
