Champion employees are trained and certified by the National Ground Water Association with many years of experience in south Florida. We offer commercial and industrial wells from 2” to 20” in diameter, with flow rates from 30 to 1500 gallons per minute. Casing materials may include ASTM 53 A Black steel, Galvanized steel, PVC Schedule 40 and 80 well casing. Wells may be “Open End” or “Screened” depending on the location and the formations in the area. Drilling available by Casing Hammer, Mud Rotary, Cable Tool and Augers.

Open end wells are used in locations with consolidated formations, and are driven with hammers. The casing is drilled clean and an open hole is drilled below the casing and into the rock.. The well is developed with air and pumps, then pump tested to determine flow rate and drawdown from natural static water table.

Screened gravel-packed wells are drilled using the direct mud rotary method. A hole is drilled using a bentonite mud slurry, typically twice the size of the casing and screen. After drilling the screen and casing is lowered in the borehole and centered. A graded sand is pumped around the screen to form the gravel pack. The well is grouted from the screen interval to the surface with cement or bentonite. The well is now in place and is developed using surge blocks or air.

Screens can be ordered in stainless steel or PVC construction and come in many slot sizes. Casing material for screened wells usually is PVC but may be installed with steel. This can be determined with a site survey from one of our representatives.
