A geological estimate for the Bellaire area.
Typical Well Depth
Static Water Level
Recommended Method
Based on available well log data in the Bellaire region, the most representative geologic sequence is as follows: A thick upper layer of coarse sand and gravel (approx. 150 ft), underlain by a substantial grey clay layer (~75 ft), then a mixed sand and clay zone (~10 ft), capped by a deeper, water-bearing fine to medium sand layer (~20 ft). Static water levels are typically deep, near 150 ft below grade. Residential wells are commonly cased to about 240 ft, with screened intervals targeting the basal sand aquifer. The dominant drilling method is rotary with mud circulation, and wells are finished with PVC casing and bentonite grouting.
Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
---|---|---|---|
0 – 150 ft | Sand & Gravel | Coarse sand and gravel; likely mixed with minor silt, unconsolidated. | Color: Gray-Mixed Hardness: Loose |
150 – 225 ft | Clay | Gray, dense glacial clay; acts as an aquitard. | Color: Gray Hardness: Firm |
225 – 235 ft | Sand & Clay | Coarse sand interbedded with clay lenses; transition zone. | Color: Light to gray Hardness: Loose |
235 – 255 ft | Sand | Light brown, fine to medium sand; primary water-bearing aquifer. | Color: Light brown Hardness: Loose |
