    The image Ken has put up shows the bores have been drilled and casing installed. Their are no headworks and no pumps in the bores, so any flow testing would have been conducted with a portable submersible pump.

    If this is recent (which it appears so) then hydrogeologists will still be undertaking assessments from field step tests and constant rate tests.

    These tests do the following: Firstly they 'step' the flow rate up at staged intervals to determine the specific capacity of the well (essentially its yield versus drawdown) with an aim to identify a sustainable abstraction rate where drawdown versus abstraction is stable.

    Secondly the most suitable sustainable abstraction rate is then usually tested for a constant period, from 3-7 days of continuous pumping. This measures the effects on the wider aquifer, drawdown, connectivity and yield.

    Analysis of these tests will still be occurring, there are a number of analytical solutions for determining the results based on the type of aquifer.

    But essentially, everyone will have to wait until this work is completed and reported by the hydrogeos' before you have an accurate idea on the production bore yields. So chill out.
