Abstract:
The town of Saya is in the eastern sector of the Santa Elena Peninsula (Ecuador). Semi arid climate
fostered by the geographical location along with the increased demand for water must have knowledge of
groundwater resources. Thus the main objective of this thesis is to characterize the local aquifer system
considering the hydrogeological performance.
Information has been gathered from several previous works are well developed and field tasks and office
in 2008-2009. The results show that the local system is composed of two hydrogeological
units. Formation sands and sandstone Tablazo possibly Sugar Group with an average 134.4 m2/day. The
hydraulic flow in the region basically runs from northwest to southeast and locally undergoes a change of
address to the deposits, which are exposed to a higher operating system.
The electrical conductivities ranging from 500 - 4000 μS / cm, we ca
