Energy & Industrial
ALTERNATIVE ENERGY, MINING & HYDROGEOLOGY
- Offshore wind, wave and tidal energy assessments
- Identify primary flowpaths into mines for flow diversion to reduce pumping and treatment
- Erosion, dispersal and fate of contaminants and sediment from mining areas & tailings ponds/waste sites
- Inter-well connectivity studies for drilling and fracking operations
- Connectivity assessments between drilling/fracking, CSG and UCG operations & aquifers, groundwater, surface waters and private water supplies
- Evaluation of pre-flush, post-flush operations, frack clean-up efficiency and flow-back assessments, proppant injection and ‘push and pull’ tests
- Environmental risk assessment, evaluation, integrity and management of aquifers
- Use of mine or groundwater system for recharge, treatment or storage of contaminated/hypersaline water
- Mine sludge and mine tailings monitoring
- Dust and air quality monitoring
- Deep-sea mining and environmental impact of sediment plumes
OIL & GAS
- Discharge and dispersal assessment of produced water
- Fate, deposition and impact assessment of drilling muds and cuttings
- Seabed erosion, deposition and sedimentation studies around platforms, structures and pipelines
- Environmental impact, risk and residual liability assessments
- Contaminated sediment dispersal during decommissioning
- Leak detection and oil spill dispersal
- Oil spill contingency planning
- Process optimisation for treatment of wastewater, separation of oil from water and water recycling
- Erosion/sedimentation around assets, seabed stability, seabed characterisation
