Our Services

River environments are dynamic and unpredictable. Our specialized services combine field expertise with advanced analytics to help you navigate regulatory requirements and safeguard your assets against erosion and exposure.

Water crossing surveys

Comprehensive evaluation of river channel stability to identify lateral migration and vertical scour hazards before they threaten pipeline integrity.

Bathymetric Surveys

High-resolution underwater mapping to visualize riverbed topography, quantify scour depths, and identify exposure risks in submerged environments.

Encroachment Surveys

Utilizing fluvial geomorphology expertise to detect, monitor, and mitigate the risks posed by river migration, landslides, and erosion to buried assets.

OGI Leak Detection

Instant visualization of leaks using industry-leading OGI technology to quickly identify hazards and streamline repair prioritization.

remediation and mitigation

Actionable engineering solutions designed to stabilize banks and mitigate flood-related risks, ensuring the long-term safety of your infrastructure.

LiDAR aerial surveys

High-definition aerial terrain modeling conducted by our licensed drone pilots to support broad-scale topographic analysis and precise change detection.

ADVANCED DATA ANALYTICS

Turning high-resolution field data into comprehensive reports that visualize risk, quantify exposure, and guide decision-making.

Scour and Erosion Modeling

Beyond Simple Scour Predictions

Our approach goes further than standard scour modeling. We don’t just predict erosion rates; we determine if those changes pose a credible threat to pipeline integrity. Whether analyzing if a buried line will be undermined or determining the hydraulic forces on a suspended crossing during flood conditions, we distinguish between simple exposure and actual structural vulnerability.

GIS and Mapping

Turning Data into Decisions

A spreadsheet of coordinates isn’t enough to assess risk. We integrate complex datasets—from aerial LiDAR to underwater bathymetry—into a unified GIS environment. Our professional mapping outputs visualize the relationship between the dynamic river channel and your static infrastructure, giving stakeholders a clear, immediate understanding of site conditions.

3D Visualizations

See the Whole Picture

2D maps can only show so much. We combine sub-surface bathymetry with aerial LiDAR to create immersive 3D models of your crossing sites. These visualizations strip away the water column, allowing stakeholders to intuitively see scour holes, pipeline spans, and bank instability—making complex problems easy to understand and communicate to your team.

Flood Response action plans

Working Smarter

Not every crossing requires a hard engineering solution. We help you distinguish between sites that need immediate construction and those that can be safely managed through monitoring. By matching the mitigation strategy to the actual risk probability, we deliver site-specific action plans that protect your pipeline without unnecessary capital expenditure.
