Multilevel groundwater monitoring in a multiport system
Monitoring the world's groundwater resources is more important than ever. As worldwide population and industrial expansion increasingly threaten water supplies, the development and management of groundwater resources has become a global concern. Collection of hydraulic and water quality data is an essential first step to characterization and better management of these groundwater resources.
Reduce uncertainty in basin performance models and increase confidence in management decisions with more data. Westbay System enables you to monitor multiple zones in a single borehole.
- Avoid drilling multiple boreholes at each location.
- Collect fluid samples without repeated purging.
- Get more data from each hole, leading to a more detailed understanding of subsurface conditions.
The sophisticated features of Westbay System represent a significant advancement in groundwater monitoring capability. You'll get more data and better quality data within a reasonable budget, meaning you can afford the information you need to improve long-term water management decisions.
Westbay System leads to significant improvements in groundwater resource management.
Supplying multilevel groundwater monitoring systems for field studies related to geological repositories since the 1970's.
Saving time and money on environmental projects.
Using Westbay System to get vital pore pressure data and water chemistry information on large construction projects that involve slope stability, dewatering and settlement.
Trust us to help you choose and implement the best combination of instrumentation and operations to meet your unique groundwater monitoring needs.
Operating specifications can vary considerably from project to project. We can help you to choose the system that best meets your requirements.

Applications
Since its introduction in 1978, Westbay System has been used for a variety of applications around the world, including: Groundwater Management, Geological Repositories, Environmental Projects, Geotechnical Projects
Westbay System empowers you to monitor multiple discrete levels in a single borehole without cross-contamination. The casing and packers seal the borehole, isolating multiple monitoring zones, and preventing unnatural cross-flow between them.
Westbay System casing is available in two sizes:
- MP55 System (55 mm ID): Install larger diameter casing deeper, providing you greater flexibility and upgrade potential.
- MP38 System (38 mm ID): Functions like MP55 but with a smaller diameter.
