We are a consulting firm established in 1981, integrated by specialists in various aspects of natural resources in general and geology in particular.
Our field of activity and experience includes hydrology, groundwater prospection, evaluation and development, planning of the use of water resources, engineering geology, environmental impact assessment and related subjects.
We offer the service of environmental monitoring, including water and/or soil sampling, water level measurement (with installation and download of data from dataloggers), measurement of water flow rates (gauging), management and transfer to laboratory and analysis of results, preparation of periodic reports for authorities and/or baseline updates.
We perform technical direction of drilling with our team of professionals (geologists, hydrogeologists, engineers and specialized technicians, as required) for groundwater exploration, exploitation/supply, dewatering or monitoring. Our service includes, if necessary, hydrogeological consultancy in the previous stages, including geophysical exploration, field surveys, well location, preliminary designs, material calculations, etc. During drilling, constant communication is maintained with the client and the drilling team (Hidroar or other subcontractors) to achieve the objectives set, performing geological control, tests (airlift, lugeon, packer), sampling, final casing designs and development control. Once the well is finished, we have the capacity to carry out pumping tests or installation of equipment as needed.
We have a Drillmine DMD 350 - 2014 with direct circulation drilling system with compressed air or mud injection, as needed. Capacities up to 300m depth in ø 8". We also have dry rotary drilling rigs with solid or hollow helical bits, mainly required in environmental studies. Additionally, our wide experience in the field allows us to count with other drilling companies allied to adapt to the client's needs.
Our field of activity includes hydrology, groundwater prospection, evaluation and development, water resources use planning, engineering geology, environmental impact assessment, and related subjects. Among our areas of expertise we can highlight: Technical direction of drilling Pumping tests and interpretation of results Hydrogeological studies of supply or dewatering, baselines Water prospecting by geophysics Development of conceptual and numerical hydrogeological models Environmental monitoring and analysis of water quality Hydrological and environmental studies Water balances
We conduct pumping tests using our own equipment rated up to 75 HP or higher-capacity units (to be provided by the client). We provide labor, equipment as needed, and a water crane to carry out any installation. We have over 40 years of experience in this field, performing well development, staged tests, continuous tests, and simultaneous pumping in multiple wells (we have performed simultaneous pumping of up to 7 wells at flow rates of 100 l/s each, using 175 HP equipment installed by our team). We adapt to the client’s needs, providing a turnkey service. If necessary, we also carry out installations for fixed water supply systems (intake structures, pipeline laying, solar panels, shelters, etc.).
