The paper is concerned with the analysis of the groundwater resources contained in the deep carbonate aquifer situated in the Iglesiente region in SW Sardinia. The study aimed to determine whether these resources could alleviate the region's water scarcity problem. Based on considerations of a general nature and on recent monitoring data we have studied the evolution of, as well as the current water situation, in both quantitative and qualitative terms. This has made it possible to update knowledge and acquire new data for the Acquaresi area. A preliminary characterization and classification of the groundwater in this area has been performed to determine environmental conditions in the aquifer and to assess suitability of the groundwater for drinking, domestic, irrigation and industrial uses.
