- •
We describe geophysical surveys targeting basement aquifers on the Arabian Shield.
- •
Geophysical data suggest wadi and basement deposits are variable on 100-m scales.
- •
Interpretation of very low frequency electromagnetic profiles is uncertain.
- •
Vertical electrical soundings are good for imaging the fractured basement aquifer.
- •
A production well was sited successfully based on the calibrated VES data.
