Well Plugs - Protecting the Olympic Site

Sales of Waterra's Well Plugs and Caps have been boosted by some excellent recent business wins.

The Olympics site in London now has more than 100 Torquer well plugs to protect the network of groundwater monitoring boreholes required to ensure that remediation work is successful.

Waterra is also delighted to announce a 600+ order into the oil industry where Torquer Well Plugs are being fitted onto boreholes used to monitor petrol station forecourts around the UK.

Check out our range of Torquer Well Plugs, EnviroCap Locking Well Caps and Direct Read Well Caps for Leveloggers.

Towards the Centre of the Earth!

It's one of our more unusual sponsorship activities but Waterra is pleased to be supporting the "Towards the Centre of the Earth" caving expedition.

The expedition is being led by the Lithuanian club “Aenigma” and brings together an international team of experienced cavers who are going to explore the world's deepest cave systems in the Western Caucasus.

The team are taking Waterra Leveloggers to the caves to measure the fluctuations in water levels. This will improve the safety of both this and future expeditions.

For Waterra it will be an excellent test of the robustness of our equipment in one of the most difficult environments they have been installed in.

Good luck Aenigma!

Waterra at Geotechnica 27th-28th August 2009

Waterra UK will be exhibiting at this year's Geotechnica technical trade show and exhibition at The Drilling Academy, Banbury, Oxfordshire between the 27th and 28th of August.

The event is focusing on innovation within the geotechnical and drilling sectors and is an excellent opportunity for Waterra to show off a wide range of its groundwater sampling and monitoring equipment. We will be bringing along a selection of economical borehole sampling devices including our new range of polyethylene and PVC bailers, and inertial pumps . Both of these provide simple inexpensive solutions for sampling from narrow diameter tubes and boreholes.

For protecting your boreholes from surface contamination try out our new Torquer well plugs - already in use on the Olympics site and other infrastructure developments.

Also with us will be the all new laser-marked coaxial water level meter. This is a mm-marked tape which is ideal for recording water levels in boreholes during drilling (no snagging) or in narrow tubes.

The new LTC conductivity Levelogger now enables electrical conductivity measurements to be recorded automatically alongside water level and temperature in boreholes.

This promises to be a great opportunity for us to discuss sampling methodologies with you.

Look forward to seeing you there.
