The GF6 (newly updated from the GF3500) seismo-electric survey instrument is designed specifically for detecting electrical signals generated by the passage of seismic impulses through layered rocks, sediments and soils. Its design is porta...ble, rugged and simple. The remarkably high signal to noise ratios achieved with the patented design means that productivities are high; up to twenty water well or oil well sites or more can be surveyed by one operator in a day of work. Over seventy five units have been sold to businesses and research organizations around the world. Most are used for groundwater and well water investigation but some are used for civil and environmental engineering work, research, and minerals exploration. Dozens of operators have used these units to find well water for farmers, home owners, land developers and anyone who needed to find well water before going to the significant expense of drilling a water well. The quality and potential quantity of the aquifer is estimated by semi-empirical relationships established between signal bandwidth and amplitude and aquifer permeability. These are supported by thousands of observations over the past decade. Contact Ervin at AquaLocate for sales & training information! Toll Free: 1.800.251.2920 or visit www.AquaLocate.com
AquaLocate provides groundwater surveys & GF6 sales & training worldwide. The GF6 seismoelectric water exploration system is limited to seeing depths of 1,500-2,000 feet which is ideal for well water exploration. PetroLocate offers oil, gas and geothermal exploration surveys and PL14 sales/training. The PL14 sees to the depths of 6-10,000 feet (depending on geology) which is needed for detection of oil, gas & geothermal reserves.

Groundwater Surveying in Twilight Territory (Forks WA)
For those of you who are Twilight fans you might be interested to know AquaLocate helped a client who lives very close to the same woods all those vampires and werewolves live and hunt...
locate and drill a successful new water well.
There is no "twilight" like power to our technology... as it's pure science and we estimated our client (Don) would get about 3 gallons per minute at about 195 feet deep.
Don's new well is just over 3 gallons per minute which was encountered between 196 and 230 feet.
You can find out more information about our seismo electric groundwater surveys and the technology at http://www.AquaLocate.com or call toll free 1.800.251.2920

Super jazzed! AquaLocate is
putting the final touches on the GF6 (Redesign of the GF3500). Literally the enclosure
and then we’re done! This redesign has been long in the making and we're even booked to fly out of country in December to train the first buyer of the
redesigned groundwater location technology! Pictures may be posted as early as Dec 1st!
Q: What is the difference between the GF3500 Seismo electric
groundwater location technology (In use since 1998) and the new GF6 design?
A: The new design dubbed the “GF6” was designed by AquaLocate’s
own Ervin Kraemer with the valuable input of Dr. Richard Clarke, UK developer
of the original GF3500. The GF6 is more portable, compact, sensitive to deeper
water sources, and has a completely redesigned software interface which will
allow for easy export to flow modeling software. Additionally, the software is
no longer restricted to use through a bulky military laptop but is now used on
any Windows 7 based consumer grade laptop.
The total weight of the unit has gone from approximately 20lbs to less
than 3lbs in a new sleek modern design.

Another Successful Seismo electric groundwater survey!
Another Successful Seismo electric groundwater survey!
A client obtained by a Colorado operator of the GF3500
(Louis) through AquaLocate had already experienced one dry well and one very
low yield well prior to contacting Louis.
Both wells were drilled within 20 feet of each other by the same
drilling contractor.
The client
contacted Louis and had a survey completed.
Due to very poor testing conditions, Louis told the client that further
testing would not likely result in good quality data. The client still wanted Louis to complete
more testing to which Louis complied.
Once the testing was complete Louis provided him with a report which
indicated there was very little likelihood of obtaining a sufficient amount of
water. The client chose to drill anyway
and hired the same drilling contractor he previously used. The drilling contractor had significant
trouble drilling the well and finally gave up due to those problems.
The client rehired Louis to complete more
testing on different part of his property and this time Louis asked Ervin
Kraemer of AquaLocate to help interpreting the new seismo-electric data.
In spite of the marginal data quality due to
the testing condition, Ervin told Louis that the best site would likely yield
between 2 and 6 gallons per minute at a depth of 330 feet.
The final well was drilled by a new drilling
contractor (Justice Water Systems, INC).
The final well depth was 313 feet and the final yield was 5 gallons per
minute. Needless to say, the client is
very happy and in turn, Louis is very happy with the data interpretation assistance
he received from AquaLocate.

Do well drillers locate the aquifer before drilling begins?
Q: Should I have a seismo electric groundwater survey
completed before I have the driller begin drilling? Do well drillers recommend
it?
A: This is a two part question and we have answers!
First, YES you should have an AquaLocate survey completed! Here’s
why… AquaLocate final reports tell the aquifer location, depth and estimated
GPM (gallons per minute) the new well will provide. This information helps you
plan financially for your well! You wouldn’t build a house without a plan would
you?
Second, some but not all well drillers recommend doing a
scientific (seismo electric) groundwater study before they begin drilling. Consider
this: ($$$ per foot) the price for a well is based on the depth rather than on
the aquifer yield or success of a productive well. Additionally if the new well
is dry or unproductive-you still pay for the hole in the ground. We work with some great well drillers and can
often recommend drillers with integrity.
Consider an AquaLocate groundwater survey and have a plan
for your well water development project BEFORE the drilling begins!
Avoid a dry hole, low yield and even salt water!
