Understanding the nature and interactivity of our planet's physical characteristics is vital for managing risks.
We have teams experienced in all aspects of geosciences, to assist clients to assess and manage challenges associated with water, land, air and ecosystems, which can impact project development and the operation of assets. In particular, we understand contamination issues, and how to assess, manage and remediate potential hazards, for lasting community benefit.
Contamination Assessment and Remediation
As well as human health and environmental impacts, site contamination can have major economic, legal and planning implications for landowners and the wider community.
Dams
Dams engineering requires understanding and control of the enormous forces and potential energy of water.
Geology
For many engineering projects, unexpected ground conditions can lead to significant health and safety, environmental, quality, reputational and financial consequences.
Geotechnical
Effectively investigating, assessing, evaluating and monitoring the suitability, risks and properties of site ground conditions for any project, are an essential part of successful delivery.
Hydrogeology
Groundwater can be a lifesaving resource in times of drought and a cost-effective way to store seasonal water supplies.
Mining Engineering and Geosciences
The mining industry is a continually changing, competitive environment requiring flexible, innovative solutions.
Risk Management
An escalating global focus on risk and safety continues to place pressure on businesses to implement strategies for effective management.
Spatial Sciences
As the world is constantly changing, fast and intuitive access to high quality geographic data and information is now critical for decision-makers in every industry.
Tailings (Mines & Residue)
GHD has gained a high level of local and global recognition for our cost effective, practical and innovative methods in tailings storage design and management.
Tunnels
To meet the needs of our ever-growing populations and urbanisations, underground spaces are becoming increasingly important.
[We have] been pleased with GHD's performance. They have provided a deep technical knowledge of the wind farm industry, including construction management, understanding of EPC contracts and the requirements of project financing. As issues have arisen at each stage of the project, GHD has provided sound, practical and timely advice on mitigation measures and workarounds.
