Analysis of the stratigraphy and hydrogeological characteristics of the deep strata that make up the subsoil of the Basin of Mexico based on the drilling of two deep wells, one at 2000 m and the other at 1570 m, called Agrícola Oriental No. 2B and 2C.

Deep wells, Hydrogeological exploration, Geotechnical drilling, Mexico CityAbstract
The deep wells Agrícola Oriental 2B (AO2B) and Agrícola Oriental 2C (AO2C) are located in the eastern part of Mexico City, in the Iztacalco district, in the area known as Magdalena Mixhuca. Well AO2B was drilled from April to June 2016, reaching a total design depth of 2,000 m, while well AO2C was drilled between July and August of the same year, reaching a depth of 1,570 m.
