Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdil Sbai is a hydrogeology founder and senior consultant with over two decades of experience in groundwater flow modeling, aquifer characterization and numerical tool development. After a long career at BRGM leading R&D programs in geothermal systems and CO₂ storage, he now advises engineering firms, utilities and governments on wellfield design, geothermal projects and water resource assessments. He pairs strong academic credentials—a PhD in Groundwater Hydrology—with hands-on coding in MATLAB, Fortran, C++, Python and Julia to deliver custom models and software. His DDA Toolbox, which implements a fast dual-boundary delineation method for well catchments, showcases his ability to translate research into dramatically faster operational tools. Comfortable managing large EU and national projects, he also writes proposals, manages budgets and engages stakeholders across multilingual environments (French, Arabic, English).
