Although seawater desalination has been common practice in some parts of the world for a number of years, it has historically been considered infeasible in the United States. However, the need to develop seawater desalination is upon us.
There are several ways that cost savings from well rehabilitation can be calculated. One method is to calculate the cost savings associated with reduced power requirements corresponding to a decreased water level drawdown within the well for a given pumping rate. Another method of determining the economics of the well rehabilitation is to calculate the benefit of the increase in available water supply from the well.
It's just the first week of June, and already those of us in the Southeast have gotten a heads-up call. The season isn't a week old, and already a tropical depression developed in the Gulf …

Drilling a geothermal well consists of a succession of steps of drilling and well casing construction until the top of the resource is reached. Drilling costs are highly dependent upon resource characteristics. Other economic parameters may, however, also influence the total cost of drilling.
This article offers a brief overview of the five primary manufacturing processes of steel tubular product. It is useful to review the major manufacturing processes of these materials and relate them to their primary purposes, as well as their potential for use as water well casing.
