Today we drilled a new 30m domestic 4 inch bore in Bayswater for Ridley Contracting.

The site access was restricted, and the only option was too drill in the driveway due to the existing property walls.

The drill was very straightforward. We encountered Bassendean Sand, 3m of coffee rock ,quartz sand (dunes) and Guildford clay.

Coffee rock is, (A type of brownish sand rock or soil pan formed where iron oxides and organic matter, which have leached through the soil profile, are precipitated at or above a fluctuating water table).

The bore has a groundwater salinity of 375 mg/L TDS and a low risk of iron staining. The PH is slightly acidic. Based on the bore dimensions and the reticulation design the Pump options are either a Calpeda 4SDP07 or a Lowara 4GS07 single phase pump. This pump should provide approximately 63 litres per min at their best efficiency point.

Ace Electrics Perth is installing the electrical components of the installation and arranging a system automation.
