Monitoring and Geophysical Investigations

PELA professionals routinely collect ground and surface water samples for 
chemical analyses. Personnel are completely familiar with the use of specialized sampling devices, and proper procedures for collecting corrosive, ignitable, 
radioactive, or other hazardous materials.

To further characterize the geochemical and geophysical aspects of the site, 
PELA uses the latest technology and techniques to provide precise, accurate 
scientific data. We perform:

• Resistivity, seismic, and magnetometer surveys

• Ground penetrating radar surveys

• Downhole geophysical logging including resistivity, potential, caliper, 
  natural gamma, and temperature

• Remote sensing/interpretation of aerial photography and satellite imagery

                   Examples of Geophysical Studies

	Geophysical Logging Services Identify potential water-bearing zones Screening interval Correlating stratigraphy Identifying Lithologies Determine resource thickness/character
	Dipole-Dipole Electrical Resistivity Tomography Geological cross-sections Defining rock reserves Karst/Sinkhole studies Tracing groundwater flow Locate seepage Delineate groundwater pollution plumes Map salt water intrusion
