Implementation of AQTESOLV software for Analyzing Single Well Pumping Test Recovery Data ( Tazerbo Wellfield GMMP, Libya – As a Case Study)

Abstract

Single well aquifer testing can provide the value
of aquifer transmissivity, whereas impedes the cost access the
multi-well aquifer testing. The motivation of this study is identify
the transmissivity of Tazerbo well field in Al Kufra basin
using this method by AQTESOLV 4.5 software and spreadsheet
containing a simple analytical model. The area of study consists
of 108 production wells distributed in 6 lines. The average value
of the wellfield transmissivity obtained after the analysis was (T
manually =2.23, TAQTESOLV=2.16 m2/min). The performance
results of both software and spreadsheet analytical model showed
a good agreement, therefore, offer reliable bases for further
investigation and computation of groundwater
potentialities in the study area
using AQTESOLV program. Moreover, during the study, the
software gives the impression about how much it
is straightforward, saving time with good results. As well
as AQTESOLV software has many other capabilities
recommended these tests for analysis, and a high degree of
confidence can be placed on the accuracy of analyses performed
with this software
