Today, the SPE–DPU team organized a valuable scientific visit to the Groundwater Directorate in Duhok. The visit focused on understanding how to select a suitable location for a drinking-water well, the required procedures, and the methods used to calculate subsurface resistivity, including the Wenner Array and Schlumberger Array resistivity methods. In addition, well logging techniques for groundwater evaluation were clearly explained.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the Groundwater Directorate in Duhok for their cooperation and valuable insights. Special thanks to our respected teachers, Mr. Sehad and Ms. Dareen, for their guidance and support throughout this visit.

Deep and heartfelt thanks to Dr. Ammar Issam, Head of the Petroleum Geology Department, for his continuous support, encouragement, and commitment to providing us with meaningful academic and field experiences.
