Our Services
Six areas of practice covering subsurface and seabed investigation, from conventional drilling to underwater execution. Choose the right area for your project.
On land
Subsurface investigation and characterization on land — the foundation of any structural project.
At sea
Underwater investigation and execution with our own means, for offshore platforms, port terminals, pipelines and wind farms.
Marine Geotechnics
Before installing a platform, a port terminal, a pipeline or an offshore wind farm, you need to know the soil beneath the seabed. Marine geotechnics investigates that subsurface with our own means, in sheltered waters, open sea, rivers, tailings dams and lakes, providing the data that guarantee the technical feasibility and safety of the project.
Professional Diving
When the work has to be done underwater -- inspecting, repairing, rescuing, or supporting a marine drilling operation -- professional diving comes in as specialized execution, with a certified crew and dedicated safety equipment, never as adapted recreational diving.
On land and at sea
Methods and expertise applicable to both onshore and offshore campaigns, depending on what the project requires.
CPTu and Vane Test
When a project needs more detail than conventional boring delivers, CPTu and the vane test measure soil behavior in real time, with no wait for lab results. They are the right tool to predict settlement, pile and foundation bearing capacity, and risk in soft clay soils before the foundation is decided.
Geophysical Survey
Before deciding where to drill, it is possible to see the subsurface and the seabed from a distance, with no direct intervention. Geophysical survey quickly maps a large area and points to the right spots for intrusive geotechnical investigation, reducing cost and risk before any drilling.
Geology
Geology answers questions engineering alone cannot: what type of rock and structure exists in the ground, where usable groundwater can be found, and what geological risks a project needs to consider. It is the link between field mapping and engineering design, from defining foundations to obtaining a water well permit.
