1. Background
Sahmiye Ground water Survey and Drilling Consultation were requested by Mr.
Cilmi ibrahim a detailed information on prospects of drilling production borehole,
And the objective of the present study was to assess the availability of groundwater,
recommend a drilling site and comment on aspects of depth of potential aquifers,
aquifer availability and type, possible yield and water quality in ceel la helay area
of Inshaca region in Ethiopia.
This report summarizes the result of the profile survey of which is both
geophysical and hydro geological survey that had been carried out to find out the
ground water potential area.
This survey was made to identify the best suitable site to be drilled in order to
provide fresh water for drinking and irrigation purposes.
The surveyed area lies approximately 20Km from Xariirad.
Two Electrical Resistivity Profiles trending E-W direction and south to
South of Ceel la helay was conducted in the Eastern part, while the other
profile line is conducted in a site situated at about 2km from the center
and1km of the residential area.

interpretation.
4. Geophysical Investigation
In conjunction with hydrological and geological investigations, geophysical
survey is the basic input for assessment of groundwater potential of the
area. The activities in this survey are critical and, hence, require good
interpretation of the subsurface geologic and structural features to
understand the depth, thickness and lateral extent of water-bearing
formations or structures and the possible factors that controls its flow
Geophysical exploration is detecting graphic rocks, geological structure
and other geological conditions through the study and observation of
changes in a variety of geophysical fields. Commonly used geophysical
exploration methods include gravity exploration, DC exploration, and
alternating current survey exploration, magnetic exploration, sonic
exploration, seismic exploration, radioactive exploration. At present, the
main geological exploration instrument is electricity exploration in the
market and most of these instruments are too complex post-data
processing.PQWT-TC series of natural Electric field geophysical

succession of investigated area, the Profile Maps were calibrated using
the observed Litho logical borehole logs in the proximity of the surveyed
traverses and reviewed geological formation from the previous studies.

As we all know, if it is a whole rock, the water will not gather into the

Rocks capable of high porosity and permeability, there is high

6. Conclusions
Ground water potential in the investigated areas is fair to moderate
Generally deep boreholes of more than 180m have to be drilled in order to
have meaningful yields
There is a wide variation in the subsurface conditions and
drilling has to be carried out at the recommended site.
The water quality is expected to be good and fresh
Large storage tanks are necessary once the boreholes are
successfully drilled in order to cope with the high demand during
the peak of dry season.
Due to the presence of unstable formations at depth as well as hard
formation, mud drilling may be the most appropriate method to
employ when drilling.
The Overall result of Geological, geophysical and hydro geological
data the study site is recommending to drill a production well ,and
can be with medium yield and can pump more than 14m3/hour

It is recommended to drill the borehole at the first location to a
maximumof120m below ground level.
It’s highly recommended that monitoring of the struck aquifers should
be done by measuring the electrical conductivity of the drilling water
and the drilling mud at the same intervals as the geological sample
(ideally every 2m).In this respect, it’s recommended that the
implementing agency acquiring electrical/TDS meter capable of
measuringupto20, 000us/cm of conductivity for the current future use.
