California Hat Trick

Three WellJet Rehabs Produce Outstanding Results

WellJet recently teamed up with LO Lynch Quality Wells & Pumps, and Desert Water Solutions, to rehabilitate three wells in Southern California. The combination of WellJet to break up obstructions, WellWorm to pull dislodged material from the gravel pack, and Redi-Clean Chemicals to kill bacterial colonies, once again proved a potent 1-2-3 process.

The result was 1,000 gpm – with less than 40 feet of drawdown, for a specific capacity of 25… an improvement in efficiency of 714%.
