Abstract
Non renewable groundwater resources in some dry areas are<br>the unique source of water for all activities and sectors and<br>therefore constitute strategic reserves for more than ever with<br>the expected water shortage in the near future.<br>Contamination due to the infiltration of pollutants coming<br>from oil and gas industries is one of the major risks that are<br>jeopardizing these valuable resources.
