We inflated the packer at 178 m, but the borehole is still flowing on the surface. Therefore, we got our equipment out of the hole and stopped at several depths to try to find the casing break. Finally, we figured out that it should be between 100 and 140 m, because water flow stopped at a packer depth of 100 m.
