Hatfield welcomes Jos Beckers to the partnership

Jan 05, 2023

Hatfield is pleased to welcome Jos Beckers, PhD, PGeo (British Columbia, Alberta) to the partnership as Associate Partner effective November 1, 2022.

Jos’s 25+ year career began in geophysics before advancing into seismology and hydrogeology. From 2000 onward, he focused his career on regional hydrogeology, groundwater modelling, and groundwater-surface water interactions. In addition to expanding his repertoire for a few years as a research associate in forest watershed hydrology, he has developed his consulting experience to mining, oil sands, LNG, municipal, industry, and forest sectors.

Since joining Hatfield in 2017 Jos has proven himself as a knowledgeable, precise, and confident foundation supporting the Hatfield Water Resources team. His education and long history of experience give him expertise on mine site environmental and permitting support, groundwater characterization (baseline) studies and effects assessments, groundwater modelling, physically-based hydrologic modelling, aquifer mapping and water balance studies, groundwater component of environmental flow needs studies, water supply studies, and providing expert technical (third party) review and advisory services. In his spare time, Jos enjoys exploring different parts of BC on his gravel bike, as well as hiking, cross-country skiing, yard work, and other outdoor activities.

“We’re excited to bring Jos’ considerable experience and enthusiasm to the partner group,” states President, Garth Taylor, “and appreciate the confidence he has demonstrated in Hatfield’s future through joining the partnership.”

Please join us in welcoming Jos to the partnership.
