Hi Roy,
Sounds like the driller used rotary precussion drilling maybe using Quik-Foam as a drilling mud? It's just like a huge rotor hammer with air.
They used they same on my well last year. The driller went 340ft with a 6" bore in 1-1/2days. When he hit water at 180ft, it shot a stream of water 60ft out of a 10" discharge pipe and again when he hit another aquifer at 290ft. He was really pi$$ed when I said I'm stopping at 340ft of a planned 500ft'r cased bore.
We got 8gpm to 10gpm at 340ft by the bucket & watch method which is good for a temporary test. However that's not that accurate as the State requires 4hrs minimum testing.
How my driller turns this into a 25gpm well, is drilling a deeper bore as then he can pump the "tank"(bore length) and claim it's producing that much gpm. He did this to a couple of neighbors in the same aquifer.
You can find out a bunch about a well driller by calling your State? license regulator for well drillers. Mine asked me who was drilling the bore and then stated it's always good to get a contract in writing from a driller. You can read between the lines on that one. My driller complained heavily when I requested a pre-contact to the point I told him to remove his equipment if no contract. As it was it all turned out just great. The rig operator was very a educated and experienced young man.
The internet is also a great place to locate good info. Our State Dept of Water Quality website was full of info.
I would strongly urge you to educate yourself on well drilling from what you've said.
