The relationship between salt layers and surrounding aquifers and the influence of water well drilling rig operations

Salt layers are interrelated with surrounding aquifers, and water well drilling rig operations in salt layers can affect adjacent aquifers.

 

  1. On one hand, brine seepage during salt mining may contaminate surrounding aquifers, worsening water quality.
  2. On the other hand, salt mining alters groundwater flow fields, impacting water levels and volumes in adjacent aquifers.

To minimize these impacts:
3. Conduct detailed hydrogeological surveys before operations to understand hydraulic connections between salt layers and surrounding aquifers.
4. Implement effective water-stopping measures during drilling to prevent brine seepage.
5. Control extraction volume and speed rationally to avoid excessive disturbance to groundwater flow fields.
6. These measures achieve coordinated development of salt layer mining and surrounding aquifer protection.water well drilling rig
