Directional Technologies, Inc. was contracted to design and install a horizontal well soil vapor mitigation system. A Horizontal Well with a Radius of Influence Reaching up to 400′
The horizontal well had to be installed under the slab in the fill material. The decision to place the well in the fill material was made after the horizontal well was designed and fabricated because during a pilot trench it was discovered that clay existed just below the fill material. Directional Technologies was asked if we could install the horizontal well just below the slab. We reviewed the utilities and determined that it was possible.
The preliminary start up for the horizontal well system is showing a 400’ radius of influence on parts of the well. Needless to say, the client is very pleased. This is not a typical radius of influence for a horizontal well which is usually 80’ to 120’ perpendicular to each side of the well screen. This extraordinary radius will allow the client to cover the entire building with only 3 or 4 horizontal wells versus trenching the entire building.
