Subsurface Void Investigations

Subsurface condition assessment service is provided to Oil and Gas Industry and Chemical Plants to provide them quality and safety assurance in a highest level. Working close together with area owners, plant engineers or Craning & Rigging department void survey is always recommended prior to heavy machinery placement or before any rigging, hoisting is taken place inside a facility.

Environmental Remediation

Pollution is a major concern, globally. Unlike air and noise pollution, searching for hazardous waste and the collateral damage from the improper disposal of hazardous waste are targets for geophysical surveys. Buried hazardous materials can affect the subsurface in many ways. Unless one is mapping preferential paths that correlate with bedrock elevations, electrical methods are the preferred geophysical service for environmental remediation investigations. Compared with electromagnetic surveys that have only a few techniques for acquiring data, electrical methods offer a wider selection of geophysical instruments and applications.

Electrical methods for environmental studies generally include electromagnetic conductivity instruments, electrical resistivity equipment, and ground penetrating radar systems. These three groups offer numerous choices that target various depths of investigation and respond to a large number of subsurface conditions, including changes in a near surface.

Pavement Thickness Assessment Roadway and Highway

Millions of dollars are sent on building, rebuilding or repairing Highways nationwide. This GPR procedure can be added to traditional roadway assessments but this one is providing valuable data and dataset to be obtained non-destructively. Thin layer information as well as road base imaging is produced as a final report in a comprehensive GIS form.

Forensic Science

Forensic geophysics is for law enforcement and other legal matters. It is a non-destructive approach for locating evidence found beneath the surface of the ground or water. GPR is capable to provide valuable information that would become evidence and may enhance a criminal investigation. When the investigation is about searching for sign of graves, we recommend using GPR (e.g., GSSI made geophysical survey system), capacitance coupled electrical resistivity, magnetometers, terrain conductivity meters (e.g. Geonics EM38 and EM31), and multi-electrode electrical resistivity imaging as a joint survey.
