BPM Projects applies advanced predictive flood modelling to deliver a clear, data-driven understanding of flood risk across both existing assets and proposed developments. By utilising industry-recognised platforms such as HEC-RAS and QGIS, alongside detailed topographic survey and rainfall data, BPM develops accurate simulations of water flow behaviour and peak flood elevations for a range of design events, including 1-in-10, 1-in-100 and 1-in-500-year rainfall scenarios.

Proven Track Record

Drawing on experience from complex stormwater investigations, BPM has successfully undertaken flood studies across multiple terminals, depots and pumping stations along the Eastern Seaboard. These assessments are focused on identifying loss of containment risks, operational vulnerabilities and the key drivers of site inundation.

Modelling Capabilities

• Hydrological & Hydraulic Modelling — HEC-RAS and QGIS-based simulation of water flow behaviour and peak flood elevations
• Design Event Analysis — modelling across 1-in-10, 1-in-100 and 1-in-500-year rainfall scenarios
• Risk Identification — loss of containment, operational vulnerability and site inundation assessments
• Asset Protection Planning — engineering-led recommendations to protect critical infrastructure

Practical, Actionable Outcomes

The value of this approach lies in its ability to translate complex modelling into practical, actionable outcomes. For operating facilities, clients can prioritise asset integrity initiatives, mitigate risk and plan targeted capital works with confidence. For greenfield or expansion projects, predictive modelling enables flood risks to be addressed early in the design phase, improving resilience, compliance and asset performance.

Beyond Modelling

Importantly, BPM extends beyond modelling to provide clear, engineering-led recommendations that protect critical assets and support continuity of operations in the face of increasingly severe weather events.
