CLIENT & COUNTRY	SUMMARY PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Mekong River Commission	Year 2020. He produced an Inception Report on ‘Sustainable Groundwater Use and Management for Agriculture Projects’ in the Lower Mekong River (LMR) Basin. This detailed existing water resources information, provided preliminary water balances and a roadmap for implementing groundwater investigations, water management and sustainable crop-production in two transboundary aquifers in the LMR.
ADB & SAMES, India	Years 2018 & 2019. He worked on the Asian Development Bank (ADB) funded Ara Canal Water Productivity Improvement Project for both ADB and SAMES PTY LTD. He was responsible for providing advice on the design, spacing and location of tube wells for conjunctive use, and reviewing the design and findings of a groundwater model.
FAO, Afghanistan	Years 2018 & 2019. He worked for the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) on a groundwater monitoring and water resources assessment in Afghanistan. He was tasked with writing specifications for groundwater monitoring networks (5 cities), writing Water Resources Assessment Reports for the Cities of Kabul and Kandahar and training the Ministry of Energy and Water’s counterpart staff.
Lahmeyer International, Pakistan	Years 2011 & 2012. He worked on an ADB project (“Groundwater Monitoring, Modelling & Management of the Lower Bari Doab Canal  Irrigation Project”) that provided services to evaluate deteriorating groundwater conditions, characterised by falling water tables and deteriorating water quality. Team Leader responsibilities included provision of technical advice, team management, client liaison, setting up a GIS database, a groundwater model (GMS), provision of additional monitoring points, reporting, logistics, procurement, project expenditure and accounting.
PCI Asia, Afghanistan	Year-2005. He visited Mazar-e Sharif and made a preliminary assessment of the groundwater resources in the lower sections of the Balkh and Khulm watersheds for an ADB Emergency Infrastructure, Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Project. Existing borehole data (water levels and water quality) were collated onto GIS-linked databases, historic hand-drawn USSR maps were geo-referenced and the hydrogeology of the area was reviewed and examined with the aid of GIS generated maps. Plans, tender documents and cost estimates were then prepared for a well inventory, a surface geophysical survey (resistivity imaging and TDEM soundings) and a drilling and aquifer testing program.
