Universal Geoscience Consulting Inc. (UGCI) is an industry leader providing stakeholders of developing unconventional oil and gas plays with water resources sampling, monitoring, and water quality interpretation services. Our firm has been in the forefront of foreign and domestic coalbed gas, tight gas sands, shale gas, and now tight oil resource plays, providing clients with successful environmental risk mitigation services. These services are used to help our clients monitor and protect surface and groundwater resources.
Using a portfolio of standardized forensic geochemical sampling and analytical protocols, we have developed proven methods to address the source of fluids and associated hydrocarbons in gas and condensate producing wells, bradenhead or casing head annuli, water wells, springs, soils, and seeps. Our attention to sampling and analysis protocols, QA/QC, and detail are designed to ensure that the data our clients collect are reliable, reproducible, and defensible. That is why science and technology research agencies, regulatory agencies, the energy industry, community development groups, and law firms have solicited our services since 1994.
