Overview

Throughout the world, boreholes and tubewells operate inefficiently or have been abandoned. Diagnosis of the problems requires hydrogeological and operational information, which is often not available because appropriate monitoring has not taken place. Guidelines on cost effective monitoring and maintenance need to be established; information on successful rehabilitation techniques is needed. This book forms the proceedings of a conference organised to exchange practical experience and scientific knowledge on these aspects of water wells.

this book is to be welcomed with open arms as it contains a large amount of practical information based on experiences in groundwater abstraction in many countries throughout the world.....this book will be an invaluable source of practical information for enginers, hydrogeologists and other specialists in groundwater abstraction, I have no hesitation in recommending it, and am pleased that I have a copy on my bookshelf. - Water and Environmental Management By far the greatest number of the papers describe case histories and therein lies the value of the book. There can hardly be any practising water well engineers in the world who would not feel more comfortable by having this compendium on their bookshelves. It is very much a practical man's guide to success and failure in well maintenance. - Hydrological Sciences
