Environmental Enginee... During a recuperative test, the water is pumped out 2.8 m initially and allowed to recuperate. It was observed that the water level rises by 1.45m in 80 minutes. If the diameter of the well is 3.45m, determine by what amount the diameter need to be increased to get a yield of 5 litre per sec under a depression head of 1.65m.

A well pumping test was carried out to determine the bulk permeability of a confined aquifer. The aquifer was overlain by a clay layer 4m thick, the depth of the aquifer was 20m, and the initial piezometric level in the aquifer was 2m below ground level. After a period of pumping when steady state conditions had been reached, the following observations were made:pumped flowrate q=1.637 li/swell radius=0.1mdrawdown just outside well = 2mdrawdown in piezometer at 100m distance from well = 0.2m.Determine the bulk permeability of the aquifer in m/s . Use the format for your answer 1.111 x 10^(-4).

A 1m diametee well penetrates vertically through a confined aquifer 30m thick. When the well is pumped at 113 m^3/hr , the drawdown in a well 15m away is 1.8m, in another well 50m away, it is 0.50m. What is the approximate drawdown in the pumped well?
A well is being drilled at a vertical depth per of 10,000 ft while circulating a 9.6-lbm/gal mud at a rate of 8.5 bbl/min when the well begins to flow. Twenty barrels of mud are gained in the pit over a 3-minute period before the pump is stopped and the blowout preventer are closed. After the pressures stabilized, an initial drillpipe pressure of 520 psig and an initial casing pressure of 920 psig are recorded. The annular capacity of the casing opposite the drillpipe is 12.9 ft/bbl. The annular capacity opposite the 900 ft of drill collars is 28.6 ft/bbl. Compute the density of the kick fluid. The total capacity of the drillstring is 130 bbl. And for a gain(kick fluid volume) of 40 bbls
