(Dan Tri) - The second well in Gia Lai has been spewing out a column of gas and water nearly 7 meters high for a month now. Due to the strong pressure, the owner's family has not been able to plug the well with this strange phenomenon.
On January 8, according to Dan Tri reporter, after one month, the well of Mr. Bui Van Tu's family (born in 1988, residing in Ia Phin commune, Chu Prong district, Gia Lai province) was still gushing strongly, creating a column of gas and water nearly 7m high.
Mr. Tu's family bought iron mesh to fence around the well to prevent curious people and children from coming near.

"For the past month, the water pressure has decreased but not significantly so I have not been able to fill it back up. Previously, people and children often came near the well to observe and play. I was worried that the high pressure would be dangerous, so I bought an iron net to fence it off. Before Tet, my family will try dropping the concrete pillar down again to see if it works," said Mr. Tu.
According to the representative of Ia Phin Commune People's Committee, the phenomenon of wells spewing gas and water is an undesirable event.
When the incident occurred, representatives of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment of Chu Prong district and the People's Committee of the commune went to the scene to inspect. After that, the commune issued a notice requiring people to comply with regulations on the use of underground water, and when drilling wells, they must report to the authorities.

"Many people drilling near Mr. Tu's house also have no water. Commune officials regularly come down to check. If the pressure drops, they will work with the family to fill the well to ensure people's safety and avoid curiosity," said a representative of the Ia Phin Commune People's Committee.
As reported by Dan Tri , on the afternoon of December 8, 2024, Mr. Bui Van Tu's family was drilling a well at a coffee plantation in Hung Tien village, Ia Phin commune when a phenomenon of gas and water gushing up from the ground occurred. The water gushed out with great pressure, forming a column nearly 10m high.
Seeing this strange phenomenon, the family used concrete pillars to drop down. However, when dropped down, the concrete pillars were pushed back up to the ground by water pressure.
Some people from other areas came to see the strange phenomenon in the well (Photo: Chi Anh).
Similarly, after the earthquake in Kon Tum province in July 2024, strange noises also appeared in the well of Mr. Dam Xuan Hoa's family in Ia Kly commune, Chu Prong district.
When Mr. Hoa's family drilled a well 180 meters deep to find a water source, suddenly a strong stream of water and gas erupted from the ground, forming a column tens of meters high.
After that, his family used concrete pillars to cover the well. For more than 2 months now, this well has not had any strange phenomenon anymore.
