Well Consulting, Auditing & Design
Technical consulting services to assess, audit and design water wells, reducing risks and supporting better investment decisions.
Decisions Based on Reliable Technical Information
Understand the true condition of your wells before investing
A water well can be a critical asset for an agricultural, industrial or real estate operation. However, information regarding its construction, capacity, structural condition or required investment is often incomplete.
At Río Blanco, we review the available records, inspect the existing infrastructure and provide technical recommendations to support informed, confident decisions.
Well Audit
We evaluate existing wells to determine their structural, hydraulic, and operational condition.
You may consider:
location and georeferencing;
effective depth;
static level;
televised inspection;
condition of pipes and screens;
status of the pumping system;
review of available background information;
pumping tests where applicable;
identification of risks and intervention needs.
Well Engineering and Design
We provide technical support for the design of new water intakes or rehabilitation projects.
You may consider:
definition of diameter;
target depth;
tubing design;
selection of pipes and screens;
granular filter design;
sanitary seal;
development criteria;
pumping system;
power and control panel;
instrumentation and telemetry.
Water Asset Assessment
We analyze sets of wells and water infrastructure to determine their condition, capacity, and investment needs.
Especially geared towards:
purchase of fields;
acquisition of agricultural land;
due diligence;
investment funds;
agro-industries;
companies with multiple wells;
CAPEX planning.
Are you considering buying a property with wells?
Before incorporating the value of wells into an investment, it is advisable to know their actual condition.
Río Blanco can evaluate existing wells and determine:
Which ones are operational → which ones require intervention → what capacity do they have → what investments may be necessary.
This gives the buyer better technical background information to evaluate and negotiate the transaction.

How we conduct an audit
I would present it as a four-stage process:
01 — Background Information Gathering
We reviewed available information, location, construction history, pumping tests, and known characteristics of the well.
02 — On-site inspection
We perform measurements, inspections and verifications according to the characteristics of each project.
03 — Technical evaluation
We analyzed the collected information and classified the condition of each well and its associated infrastructure.
04 — Action Plan
We provide technical recommendations, intervention priorities, and investment estimates where appropriate.
When do we recommend conducting an audit?
Before buying a property.
Before investing in the refurbishment of an old well.
When there are several wells and their condition is unknown.
When the flow rate has decreased.
Before deciding between rehabilitating or building a new well.
To plan future investments.
To technically review the design of a new well.
When a second technical opinion is required.
Do you need to evaluate a well or a group of wells?
We can review the available background information and define the necessary technical scope for your project.
