Since 2008, Vides Konsultāciju Birojs Ltd. has been offering comprehensive professional services in the water supply and hydrogeology sectors. Our team of experts provides a full range of services, from initial hydrogeological investigations and borehole design to the installation, maintenance and upgrading of water supply systems. We specialise in both the development of new water extraction systems and the optimisation and renovation of existing systems.
Our clients include municipalities, industrial companies, farms, agricultural holdings, as well as private individuals throughout Latvia. Unlike other service providers, we provide full support because we are always available when you need help and carry out all warranty maintenance work in good faith. Our experience allows us to successfully carry out projects even in geologically difficult locations where other specialists refuse to work.
We carry out professional borehole drilling, providing quality drinking water from protected underground aquifers. Artesian wells guarantee a stable water supply regardless of seasonal and meteorological conditions, and the water quality is usually higher than in shallow boreholes. Before drilling, we carry out a detailed
Professional abandonment of disused, damaged or contaminated wells in accordance with legal requirements. Tamponage is necessary to prevent mixing of different water levels, groundwater contamination and degradation of groundwater supplies. The process involves cleaning, disinfecting, gradually filling the borehole with a clay-cement mixture and installing a concrete plug. After tamponage, we prepare all the necessary documentation for submission to the LVGMC and VVD, ensuring the legally correct deletion of the borehole from state registers.
Specialised well recovery that restores 70-95% of original productivity. Over time, boreholes become overgrown with iron and lime deposits, their permeability decreases and water quality deteriorates. We offer mechanical cleaning using chemical treatment with acid solutions to dissolve the sediment, airlift or intensive pumping. The cost of remediation is considerably less than installing a new borehole, and this procedure is recommended as a preventive measure every 5-10 years, depending on the water chemistry.
Comprehensive solutions for efficient water extraction and supply. Equipment includes selection and installation of borehole pumps, installation of automation and control systems, installation of pressure tanks and hydrophores, integration of water treatment plants. We diagnose existing systems, replace and repair pumps, reconstruct pipelines and modernise electrical supply systems. We also offer remote control and monitoring systems that allow you to keep track of your system.
Professional borehole testing for productivity and water quality. Experimental pumping (12-72 hours) to determine maximum and optimum flow rates, static and dynamic water levels, specific flow rates and parameters required for depression funnel calculations. We also carry out express tests for commissioning new wells, workover tests and seasonal tests for field monitoring. The results are required for the preparation of the well passport, pump capacity selection and water production limits.
A full package for legalising and monitoring water abstraction. Groundwater passports include detailed geological descriptions, water storage calculations, water quality characterisation, protection zone calculations and exploitation rules.
