NOT TO SCALE Figure 3-6. As-Built Configuration for Well H-14 3.6 H-15 H-15 was drilled in November 1986 to provide a Culebra monitoring well in the east-central portion of the WlPP site where no other Culebra wells existed (see Figure 1-1). A 7.875-inch hole was drilled to a depth of 854 ft, about 7 ft above the top of the Culebra, and 5.5-inch casing was set and cemented from 853 ft to the surface. The hole was then cored and reamed through the Culebra to about 891 ft to a diameter of 4.75 inches. Following tests of the Culebra, the hole was deepened at a diameter of 4.75 inches to its final depth of 900 ft. Stratigraphic depths of the formations encountered and the final as-built configuration of the well are shown in Figure 3-7. Figure 3-7. As-Built Configuration for Well H-15 3.7 H-16 H-16 was drilled in July and August 1987 to provide a location to monitor the hydraulic responses of the members of the Rustler during construction of the WIPP Air-Intake Shaft. A hole was rotary-drilled and reamed to a diameter of 9.625 inches to a depth of 470 ft, and 7-inch casing was installed and cemented in place from the surface to a depth of 469 ft. The hole was deepened in five steps to its final total depth of 850.9 ft. Each member of the Rustler was successively cored and reamed to a 4.75-inch diameter. Drillstern, slug, andfor pulse tests were performed on each member before the next member was cored. After all testing was finished, the hole 24
was reamed to a final diameter of 6.125 inches. The well was completed by installing a 5-packer system that isolates each of the Rustler members and allows monitoring of fluid pressure in each member. Stratigraphic depths of the formations encountered and the 5-packer completion of the well are shown in Figure 3-8. 3.0 H-17 Well H-17 was drilled from September to November 1987 to investigate an area south of the WlPP site that was believed, on the basis of computer modeling (Haug et al., 1987) and surface geophysical surveys (Bartel, in preparation), to have high transmissivity in the Culebra. A 7.875-inch hole was drilled to a depth of about 510 ft, just below the top of the Rustler Formation. The hole was then cored to a depth of 693 ft, about 13 ft above the top of the Culebra. After reaming to 9.625 inches, 7-inch casing was set and cemented from 692 ft to the surface. The hole was then cored and reamed through the Culebra to about 735 ft to a diameter of 4.75 inches. Following testing of the Culebra, the hole was cored to 870.3 ft for stratigraphic information, reamed to 6.1 25 inches for geophysical logging, and then plugged back to 773 ft with cement. Stratigraphic depths of the formations encountered and the final as-built configuration of the well are shown in Figure 3-9. 3.9 H-18 Well H-18 was drilled in October and November 1987 to investigate an area in the northwest portion of the WlPP site where large changes in Culebra transmissivity and water quality occur. A 9.625-inch hole was cored and reamed to a depth of 674 ft, about 15 ft above the top of the Culebra, and 7-inch casing was set and cemented from 673 ft to the surface. The hole was then cored and reamed through the Culebra to about 714 ft to a diameter of 4.75 inches. Following testing of the Culebra, the hole was cored to 830.5 ft for stratigraphic information, reamed to 6.1 25 inches for geophysical logging, and then plugged back to 766 ft with cement. Stratigraphic depths of the formations encountered and the final as-built configuration of the well are shown in Figure 3-10. 3.10 WIPP-12 Drilling began at WIPP-12 in November 1978. The hole was drilled and reamed to a diameter of 12.25 inches to a depth of about 1003 ft, and 9.625-inch casing was set and cemented from 1002 ft to the surface. The hole was then cored and reamed to a diameter of 7.875 inches to a total depth of about 2774 ft, approximately 48 ft into the Castile Formation (Sandia and D’Appolonia, 1982). As the borehole was being deepened in 1981, a pressurized brine reservoir was encountered at a depth of about 301 7 ft in the lower portion of the Anhydrite 111 unit of the Castile (Popielak et al., 1983). The hole was deepened at a diameter of 7.875 inches to about 3107 ft, from which point the diameter was reduced to 6 inches for the balance of the hole down to the total depth of 3927.5 ft in the upper part of the Anhydrite I unit of the Castile (Black, 1982). In June 1983, the upper part of the wellbore was isolated from the brine reservoir by setting a bridge plug in the hole from 3000 to 3005 ft deep, putting 27 ft of sand on top of the bridge plug, and putting a 1894 cement plug on top of the sand (D’Appolonia, 1983). Key stratigraphic horizons and the well configuration at the time of the August-September 1985 testing are shown in Figure 3-1 1. On October 12, 1985, a retrievable bridge plug was set in the WIPP-12 casing between the depths of 984.0 and 989.4 ft. Two days later, gamma-ray logging was performed which indicated that the Culebra interval extended from 815 to 840 ft below ground surface, and that interval was then shotperforated. All stratigraphic contacts shown on this log are approximately 5 ft deeper than those reported by Sandia and D’Appolonia (1982). This discrepancy may be due to the 1978 and 1985 logging surveys having used different datums to “zero” their depth counters. Inasmuch as the 1985 gamma-ray log and the perforation were run off the same depth counter and used the same datum, the correct Culebra interval should have been perforated. 25
