Abandonment/ Decommissioning
Disused wells can present a significant environmental liability, as they may act as a direct conduit to valuable groundwater aquifers. In the event of surface contamination—such as fuel spills or chemical leakage—pollutants can migrate through these pathways and impact aquifers over a wide area.
Rockwell provides professional well abandonment and decommissioning services carried out in strict accordance with Environmental Agency regulations and industry best practice. Our process ensures that all potential contamination pathways are permanently sealed and the well is rendered safe and environmentally secure.
Upon completion, a full decommissioning record is compiled and submitted to the relevant regulatory authorities, providing complete documentation and compliance assurance.
