Geothermal Well Drilling Initiative – Construction Update – 6/14/19
During the week of June 14th
Park Test Well #3
- Last week, the testing agency completed the thermal conductivity test of the geothermal exchange system at the TW#3 bore hole. This 48-hr test ran continuously from Tuesday 6/11 through Thursday 6/13, and involved circulating fluid through the piping to measure the temperature exchange with the ground in order to verify the design assumptions of the system.
- Starting Monday, 6/11, the construction manager has instructed the subcontractor to cut the high-performance geothermal exchange piping (RYGAN) below grade and install the manhole at TW#3.
Parking Lot N
- During the week of 6/17, the construction manager will be mobilizing the temporary office trailer. The trailer will be used for production wells and setting up the temporary fence line in northwest end of parking Lot N.
As a reminder to all, please be aware of all directional signage, as pedestrian travel paths may be altered. Your safety is imperative!
