Through our affiliation with Rakhit Petroleum Consulting Ltd., a recognized world leader in the application of hydrodynamics for exploration and development, Canadian Discovery brings over 20 years of experience to the table.


Typical hydrodynamic applications include:
  • Unconventional Gas Resource Identification
  • Hydrodynamics Based Petroleum Migration Modelling
  • Charge and Flushing Risk Identification
  • Tilted Oil/Water Contact Analysis
  • Fluid Chemistry Mapping and Prediction (gas, oil and water)
  • Biodegradation Patterns
  • Reservoir Continuity Analysis
  • Pore Pressure Prediction
  • Numerical Modelling

Over the course of completing >300 international studies, and through our dedication to research, we have developed a unique perspective on the factors controlling basinal hydrogeology. By focusing on subsurface fluid dynamics as it relates to basin evolution and its impact on fluid composition, petroleum hydrogeology has become a key component of an integrated exploration and development program.


Representative hydrodynamic studies include:
