High Resolution Site Characterisation Seminar

ALGA is hosting a seminar on High Resolution Site Characterisation (HRSC) in Sydney Monday 2 March 2020. This seminar aims to bring together the wealth of real-life experience of environmental practitioners and of environmental practitioners and managers and the expertise of technical service providers.

There has been a quantum leap forward in technologies available to characterise the subsurface in the past two decades. Where historically a site may have been characterised based on tens of data points, new assessment methods and improvements in technology capture means that the number of data points available from essentially the same bore network can easily be in the thousands.

The questions posed to the industry are:

When do you need HRSC?

What HRSC tools are applicable in different lithologies?

What is the return on investigation (ROI) from HRSC?

Presenters will include (but can be subject to change):
