Fugro

Fugro provides geotechnical and Geo-data services from its Falmouth operation, supporting projects that need a clearer understanding of ground, soil, rock and groundwater conditions. Its wider UK operation covers geotechnical, survey, environmental, geoconsulting and subsea work, while the Falmouth presence is associated with specialist marine and overwater drilling capability.

The company’s documented ground investigation work includes borehole soil investigation, trial pits, mechanical and hand-auger drilling, core sampling, cone penetration testing, pressuremeter testing, geological mapping and geophysical surveys. Collected samples can be tested and interpreted to help assess strength, permeability, composition, contamination and foundation conditions.

Fugro also develops ground investigation reports, 3D ground models and related engineering insight for construction and infrastructure planning. Its approach is intended to reduce uncertainty and project risk, with investigation methods tailored to the site, the ground conditions and the objectives of the development.

The service is suited to commercial and industrial clients, construction teams, infrastructure owners, energy developers and public-sector organisations. Clients looking for specialist investigation of onshore, nearshore or deepwater conditions can draw on Fugro’s combination of drilling, surveying, laboratory testing and technical interpretation.
