Offshore (Marine) Geotechnical Investigation

Offshore geotechnical investigation is a critical process in the planning and development of marine infrastructure such as oil platforms, wind farms, subsea pipelines, and ports. This investigation involves the collection and analysis of soil and rock samples from beneath the seabed to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of marine sediments. These insights are essential for safe foundation design, construction feasibility, and long-term stability of offshore structures.
 

Key aspects include:

• Seabed sampling using specialized equipments
• In-situ testing such as CPT (Cone Penetration Test) and vane shear tests
• Borehole drilling from jack-up barges or vessels
• Laboratory analysis of recovered soil and rock samples
• Geotechnical reporting and foundation recommendations
