As in any engineering design, the objective is to affect a "safe" design for minimum "expense". By attending this Well Design and Planning course you will learn how to choose the criteria for design, how to logically and efficiently perform the design sequence, and how to present the resulting well plan in a usable form.
By completing this course, delegates will acquire basic knowledge and practical skills regarding the designing and planning of water well drilling and construction.
