Well Drillers Near Ogema, Wisconsin

A geological estimate for the Ogema area.

Detailed Summary

Based on a synthesis of well logs from Ogema and adjoining sections, the most representative geologic profile consists of an upper clay or clay-rich till layer extending to approximately 30-35 ft, underlain by mixed sand and gravel—sometimes with intervening hardpan and occasional stony/clayey intervals—extending to about 45-60 ft. Thicker sequences (80-110 ft) show a dominance of glacial till types (hardpan, gravelly clay, dirty gravel/clay) before reliable sand/gravel aquifers are encountered. Productive water-bearing zones are consistently reported in sand and gravel below 40 ft. Most residential wells are cased to 40-60 ft, producing 5-15+ GPM; higher yields can be obtained from deeper wells where thick sand/gravel intervals exist.
