SERVICES PROVIDED: Geotechnical study, geophysical studies (Down-Hole tests, soil resistivity), hydrogeological studies, hydrogeophysical study, hydrological studies, hydraulic studies, topographic survey.

 

Scope

The scope of this project was the determination of the resistivity of the subsoil materials, by means of electrical resistivity tests (Wenner), the determination of the transmission speeds of the P waves (longitudinal or compression) and S waves (transverse or cutting) ) by means of a Down Hole test, the evaluation of the feasibility for the water supply with the execution of hydrogeological and hydrogeological studies, hydrological-hydraulic study, seismic risk study, topographic survey and the realization of geotechnical studies to describe the geotechnical characteristics and the parameters of subsoil resistance for the following facilities:

 

  • Petrourica, Junín block 4.
  • Petromiranda, Junín block 6.
  • Petrojunín, Junín block 5.
  • Petroindependencia, blocks 2S, 3N Y 5
  • Petrocarabobo
  • Petromacareo, Junín block 2.
