Groundwater Technologies speaks
about the range of services provided
by the company, “We are purely a
consulting company for specialised
groundwater
management.
We
provide a full range of services for
mining water management and a
mining company can come to us for
dewatering of the mine, water supply
and impact assessment.
“Otherwise the mining company may
need to approach three different
consultants.
Most
companies
approach us because they have
heard of us. We do not do traditional
advertising. We have a reputation for
being specialists inMAR. We also team
up with other like-minded consulting
companies and gain exposure to their
client base and work on referrals from
them.
“In the past a lot of our work has
been focussed on the design and
implementation of MAR schemes. I
thinkastimegoesonwearenowlooking
into investing in the monitoring and
management of established schemes.
Our parent company MECRUS is
an asset management company so
we are looking more towards the
operation and maintenance side of
existing schemes and implementing
preventive maintenance programs.”
