Engineering & Consulting

Sandia provides a multi-disciplinary, team-based consulting approach with innovative engineered solutions customized for our client’s needs. This approach is used in well design, studies of materials compatibility, and corrosion analysis. Reservoir modeling studies evaluate and characterize all geologic parameters and properties, which are then integrated with engineering studies of injection well drilling and completion operations. The result is a well designed with optimized flow capacity and efficiency, efficient equipment installation, and high reliability.

 

An integrated project management and problem-solving approach is offered with initial technical review to minimize risk and uncertainty.

Sandia is an expert in regulatory affairs pertaining to Class I, II, III, V and proposed Class VI injection wells with extensive knowledge of state and federal regulations. State and Federal Permits are prepared by Sandia’s geologists and engineers, incorporating all requirements necessary under UIC regulations.
