Electrical resistivity measurements by utilizing the Schlumberger array were accomplished at the Western Amman Catchment Basin in Jordan. The objective of this work was to study the groundwater potential in order to clarify the subsurface geology of the study area, and finally to locate productive borehole sites. Thirteen vertical Electrical sounding (VES) were conducted by IRIS resistivity instrument in 1999. The AB/2 spacing for VES is 500m. The VES curves obtained were interpreted by using master curves and software modeling techniques. Results of the quantitative interpretation indicate that there are four groups of resistivity values in the study area, corresponding to four geological layers. Besides, two subsurface faults were also detected.
