INTRODUCTION :-

A bore hole has been drilled at Biswanathpur P.W.S.S Tube Well Number-II Block Ramnagar-I
under Digha Sub Division of Tamluck Division P.H.E Dte, Purbo Medenipure, West Bengal. up to
the depth of 230 m by direct rig rotary method
Diameter of the bore hole was 8 inches at the time of log.
Tube well has been electrically logged on 09.10.2023 up to the depth of 226 m adopting multi electrode
system of logging which enables determination of true resistivity of the formation encountered at time of
logging .
Spontaneous Potential (S.P) ; Long Normal (L.N) 1.6 m & Short Normal (S .N) 0.4 m resistivity data has
been plotted in mm graph sheet with depth . Four electrodes two for emitting current and two for potential
measurement constitute the system .
Recommendations are made on the basis of effective porosity , yield , quality of water , for construction of
production well . The tube well in question will be successful and yield good amount of water with good
quality , provided all steps of well construction are maintained .

INTERPRETATION OF THE ELECTRICAL LOGS

Depth in m. Electrical characteristics Inference

06 to 12 Very High LN,SN&SP Kankar

12 to 30 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

30 to 52 Moderately High LN,SN&SP Sand mixed with clay

50 to 70 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

70 to 80 High LN,SN&SP Sand saturated with water

80 to 114 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

114 to 132 High LN,SN&SP Sand saturated with water

132 to 140 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

140 to 153 High LN,SN&SP Sand saturated with water

153 to 170 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

Biswanathpur P.W.S.S Block Ramnagar-I under Digha Sub Division of Tamluck Division P.H.E Dte 2
 170 to 190 High LN,SN&SP Sand saturated with water

190 to 226 Low LN,SN&SP Clay

SAND ZONES :-

As per electrical log parameters there are four clear sand zones have been identified as under.

70 to 80 m Zone A , 114 to 132 m Zone B, 140 to 153 m Zone C , 170 to 190 m Zone D

QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF WATER:-

On the basis of electrical log parameters Zone A, B and C in between 114 to 129 m , 147 to 153 and
171 to 177 m are recommended for placement of strainer.
From the behavior of log characteristics as recorded in the bore hole and as per the drilled out samples, it
may be infer that the quality of water in the identified granular zones will be free from salinity.
TDS – Good.

Expected Yield Moderate .

RECOMMENDATIONS :-

1. Strainers are recommended for placement in Zone A, B and C in between between 114 to 129
m , 147 to 153 and 171 to 177 m
2. Expected Yield - Moderate .
3. Quality :- Free from salinity & TDS will be within acceptable limit.
