Surge Developing a large diameter well

We get calls all the time to clean out old casings that may have been drilled many years ago, but still have a lot of life in them. We did that this week for the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources. They have a dozen or more observation wells, some of which had not been cleaned out since 1985. They did not take long to clean.

Did I mention how much I love my job? That was an adrenalin rush! We were trying to prevent being soaked with 500 gallons per minute of water pushing 250′ of heavy wall plastic tubing! After some effort we managed to blow all the rusted casing particles out.
