QUESTION
Salvaging a under roof borewell

Dear Team,

A bore well situated under our apartment floor in Secunderabad has become unusable because of a rock obstruction. The bore is 200ft deep, has water at 75ft and the obstruction is at 80ft. The bore has become unusable as the pump cannot be lowered into the well.

It is known that the bore is clear below the obstruction. Our effort to clear the obstruction using a pulley driven hammer failed. We can not use a rig because the bore is under the roof and the clearance is only 9 ft. Is there any way to clear/break the obstruction?

No bore well contracter has come forward so far with a solution.

Thank you
