Abstract : During drilling operations special attention must be addressed to the adequate design (proper composition) of the
mud used during drilling, especially the one used during the drilling for running surface casing that passes through the
aquifer. Also, in next phase it is necessary to properly design the cement slurry, since casing must be cemented in place, in
order to insulate the underground sources of drinking water (USDW) with quality cement sheath. Although during drilling
there is a risk of groundwater pollution, it is necessary to take into account the pollution that can occur many years after the
well is drilled, during the use of the well for various purposes such as production or injection of fluids, as well as after the
well is abandoned. This paper will present the possible pollution of groundwater during drilling and possible migration paths
of fluids into an groundwater during the entire lifetime of the well.
