MEK Earth & Environmental Inc. provides a broad range of hydrogeological consultancy services directed towards the assessment, development, protection and management of groundwater resources across varied geological and environmental settings. Our hydrogeology services are designed to support water-supply development, resource sustainability, infrastructure planning, mine-water management, contamination risk reduction and long-term groundwater governance.
What We Do
Our hydrogeological service platform includes baseline hydrogeological investigation and site characterization, aquifer mapping, hydraulic performance assessment, groundwater monitoring, source protection, groundwater modelling, geophysical investigations and strategic groundwater management advisory.
Key Hydrogeology Services
Baseline hydrogeological investigations
We undertake site characterization to define the physical and hydrogeological controls governing groundwater occurrence, movement and availability. This includes aquifer mapping and characterization, and the assessment of groundwater systems influenced by nearby rivers, lakes and other surface-water bodies.
Aquifer evaluation and hydraulic testing
We conduct pumping tests, slug tests and related aquifer assessments to establish key hydraulic parameters, support sustainable yield assessment and improve confidence in groundwater development decisions.
Groundwater monitoring and surveillance
MEK designs and supports monitoring networks for groundwater levels, water quality and seepage conditions, including baseline, operational and compliance-related monitoring programmes.
Groundwater resource development and water-supply support
Our team supports borehole and water well siting, drilling, design, construction oversight and rehabilitation planning to improve source reliability, efficiency and long-term sustainability.
Source protection and groundwater security
We undertake wellhead protection studies, source protection planning and groundwater vulnerability assessments to safeguard potable water supplies and reduce contamination risk.
Groundwater modelling and predictive analysis
We develop groundwater flow models, contaminant transport models and surface water-groundwater interaction models to support abstraction design, risk management, planning and regulatory decision-making.
Geophysics and remote sensing
We apply electrical resistivity, other geophysical survey methods and satellite imagery analysis to identify groundwater-bearing formations, map structural controls and improve groundwater targeting in data-scarce settings.
Mining and industrial hydrogeology
We support acid mine drainage studies, dewatering hydrogeology, seepage monitoring and groundwater risk assessment for mining and industrial projects.
Hydrogeological management advisory
We provide groundwater resource management strategy, compliance support, risk assessment, technical reporting, stakeholder-facing technical input and project management support.
Where This Service Adds Value
Our hydrogeology team adds value wherever reliable groundwater information is central to project success, whether for public water supply, utility reform, hydropower support, mine-water management, climate adaptation, community water security or infrastructure planning in hydrogeologically sensitive areas.
MEK delivers hydrogeological services that move beyond data collection to actionable decision support. We help clients understand groundwater systems, reduce uncertainty and make technically sound choices that protect water resources while enabling development.
