Using Geoelectrical Measurement to Investigation the Ground Water of the Area West of the Gulf of Suez, Egypt

The western side of Gulf of Suez is one of the proposed promising sites for the new urbanization programs of industrial national projects. The present study aims to investigation the ground water to facing the new urbanization programs of industrial national projects in the study area using Geoelectrical measurement. The area is located between latitudes 29° 30' to 30° 00' N and longitudes. 32° 00' to 32° 30', as shown in Fig. 1. Rock resistivity is of special interest for hydrogeological purposes: it allows, e.g., to discriminate between fresh water and salt water, between soft-rock sandy aquifers and clayey material, between hardrock porous/fractured aquifers and low-permeable claystones and marlstones, and between water-bearing fractured rock and its solid host rock.
