Moab Area Geology & Well Considerations

Drilling in Moab's canyon country requires specialized expertise. Here's what Grand County property owners need to know.

  • Sandstone aquifers: The Navajo and Entrada Sandstone formations are the primary water sources for rural Grand County. These fractured rock aquifers require precise drilling depth and location to intersect productive water zones.
  • Water quality testing critical: Grand County groundwater can contain elevated TDS, fluoride, and selenium due to natural mineral content. Always conduct a full water quality panel before use.
  • Colorado River appropriation: Water rights in the Colorado River basin are heavily managed at both state and federal levels. Early consultation on water right availability is critical before purchasing land with plans to drill.
  • Hard rock drilling: The red rock canyon country requires air-hammer or down-the-hole percussion drilling. Our network's certified drillers are equipped for Grand County's challenging rock formations.
