Well Field Engineer – Geohydrologist



Responsible for:

  • Optimizing water injection and production well field production performance that utilizes the in-situ water well injections and extraction mining process.
  • Hands-on field work checking the performance of all operating wells to make sure all wells are operating at maximum efficiency with regard to proper load and draw of water
  • Checks water pressures, flows and designs
  • Balance the optimized flow of water and power to operate pumps to maximize efficiency and energy savings
  • Other duties may include planning and coordination of well field construction activities, piping designs and conduit systems.

The mining is done using the in-situ mining process. This mining process is used with 500-1000 foot deep wells. This is the most environmentally friendly mining process in the industry. Unlike other mining processes this process leaves the ore body in tact. A series of water wells are used in a grid system. Water flows from one injection well to an extraction well pumping out only 50-700 ppm. The natural landscape and wildlife are never affected. Therefore the company can ensure the core zone is returned to its original state after mining operations have been completed.

Requirements:

  • BS degree in Engineering, Hydrogeology, Geology or related field
  • Understanding of underground water flows and pump curve optimization.
  • Experience using hydrogeological modeling, or ground water hydrology consulting experience.
  • Experience working with many multiple wells at one time.
  • In-situ mining experience is a plus.
