About Us
Trusted Environmental and Geoscience Expertise
Hydro Geo Environmental Consulting is a scientific consultancy initially based in Victoria, providing analytical services and technical advice to a diverse range of sectors. Our work supports private, commercial, industrial, and government clients involved in activities such as research, specialised environmental monitoring and sampling, asset management, risk assessment, geophysical mapping, and comprehensive geoscience audits.
We take a practical, science-driven approach to every project, combining rigorous analysis with a clear understanding of regulatory requirements and real-world constraints. Our team works closely with clients to develop solutions that are technically sound, transparent, and fit for purpose—whether for long-term planning, compliance, or risk mitigation.
Our technical expertise spans geology, hydrogeology, engineering, computer programming (Fortran), GIS analysis, and community consultation. With more than 30 years of combined experience working both within government and as external consultants, we bring deep institutional knowledge, strong technical capability, and an understanding of how environmental decisions impact stakeholders at every level.
In addition to our core services, HGEC can provide access to complementary specialist expertise, including soil science, ecology, geotechnical engineering, agricultural consulting, and community engagement. These services are delivered through long-standing working relationships with highly experienced independent consultants, allowing us to assemble multidisciplinary teams tailored to the specific needs of each project.
Through collaboration, technical excellence, and a commitment to scientific integrity, HGEC supports clients in making informed decisions that protect environmental values while achieving project objectives.
