Horizontal Collector Wells

We specialise in the construction of Horizontal Collector Wells, from initial site survey to the completed scheme, inclusive of pumping plant, switchgear and distribution pipework to supply.

Principal advantages of the collector well system:

• Favourable capital cost

• Increased pumping efficiency resulting in lower lifting costs

• Minimal maintenance due to extremely low screen velocities

• Ease of operation due to centralisation of all pumping equipment and controls

• Some degree of quality control due to individual operation of each lateral

• Ability to use the entire aquifer due to the horizontal installation of the screens at the bottom of the aquifer

• Safety of the supply
