4 Schlumberger Water Services Water Solutions Minimizing risks and improving predictability to make sustainable water resources a reality WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT Planning for sustainable water supplies requires a comprehensive understanding of water demand, groundwater and surface water sources, identification of potential impacts, and a long-term commitment to monitoring. Our project experience and technologies provide the big-picture solution for accurately characterizing available water quantity, quality, and vulnerability to impacts. Regional aquifer characterization Aquifer hydraulic testing Aqueous geochemical characterization Water well drilling, design, and completion Pumping well optimization Groundwater supply development Groundwater monitoring networks design Real-time data acquisition and management AQUIFER STORAGE AND RECOVERY (ASR) Our ASR solutions offer a long term, costeffective method for providing a continuous supply of water. ASR requires a high degree of accuracy and confidence in the dynamic model of the underground reservoir an area where SWS has unrivaled expertise. Our multidisciplinary team of hydrogeologists, engineers, and geophysicists utilizes proven technologies to make ASR feasible on a wide scale. High-resolution geophysical logging Regional hydrogeologic interpretations Geologic modeling and flow simulation Well network planning and pilot tests Injection well construction and operation Optimization of recovery efficiency Aqueous geochemical analysis Long-term groundwater monitoring COASTAL ZONE AQUIFER MANAGEMENT More than half of the world s population lives within 60 kilometers of a coastline. The demand for groundwater in these areas is increasing and in many cases is resulting in stress on the groundwater resource. SWS provides clients with advanced solutions for mitigating impacts from saltwater intrusion. Four-dimensional aquifer characterization, modeling, and groundwater monitoring Construction engineering of ASR systems Optimized injection of residual brine water or desalinized water Saltwater intrusion mitigation using horizontal well technology Assessment of land subsidence from groundwater pumping Long-term monitoring of coastal aquifers

5 Technologies and Solutions for Integrated Water Management WATER SOLUTIONS FOR MINES Water is an integral component of mineral, metal, and aggregate mining. SWS is at the forefront of integrated water management for mines, offering technologies and solutions that cover all phases of mine life. Prefeasibility planning and support Water supply and wellfield design Dewatering and depressurization design Surface water and groundwater resources evaluation and development Subsurface characterization and monitoring of geomechanical stresses Groundwater flow and contaminant transport modeling with aqueous geochemical reactions Acid Rock Drainage assessment and control Environmental impact assessment and site closure ENVIRONMENTAL SITE SOLUTIONS Our teams apply numerical models to evaluate and assess remediation options that meet or exceed standards. Site specific, physically based analyses enable our specialists to assist clients to plan, evaluate, and optimize groundwater remediation systems, and to design efficient site-wide monitoring programs. Hydrogeologic characterization including influences to flow from fractures and karsts Saltwater intrusion simulation and deployment of mitigation techniques Optimization of groundwater remediation systems (pump and treat, funnel and gate) Multilevel groundwater sampling and longterm monitoring Simulation of multiphase flow and transport of light and dense non-aqueous phase liquids (LNAPLs and DNAPLs) GROUNDWATER MONITORING NETWORKS As an essential component of water management, groundwater monitoring networks are designed to optimize the collection of vast amounts of field data during the life of a project.
