Hydrogeology and Groundwater Solutions - Ogab Engineering

Oil & Gas Industry Leaders

Service Overview

OGAB Engineering Inc. & Associates offers highly beneficial expert and diverse services in Water Resource and Disposal Zone Hydrogeology; Groundwater Monitoring, Geochemistry, Water Use Management; Geologic Interpretation and Mapping, Core Logging, and Geographic Information Systems. Our team of specialists have been involved in several projects over four countries (Canada, Norway, USA, and UK), covering groundwater solutions in conventional and unconventional plays.

Our Team consists of dedicated experts who:
- Deliver Projects on Scope & On Budget
- Elevate Technical Proficiency & Quality
- Drive Regulatory Compliance

We possess in-depth experience in environmental compliance, water resource and disposal characterization, specializing in groundwater assessments for development and execution of corporate management practices. Manage multipurpose groundwater programs that integrate economic, social, environmental, and stakeholder water objectives, achieving water source and disposal strategy in compliance with governmental regulations. Develop technical approach, using sound scientific-based methods to assess long-term deliverability of groundwater systems while evaluating and understanding local- and regional-scale flow systems. Use collaborative style and knowledge of environmental regulations to identify and implement sound investigative measures that deliver project goals.
