Geophysical Services

Advanced Geophysical Insights for Better Project Outcomes

SOCOTEC’s Geophysical Services deliver advanced, non-invasive solutions to evaluate the subsurface conditions critical to the success of engineering and construction projects. Using cutting-edge geophysical equipment and decades of experience, we support infrastructure development, reduce construction risks, and minimize environmental disruption.

From seismic site classification to concrete integrity testing, our geophysical exploration capabilities provide fast, reliable, and cost-effective data that reduces the need for traditional excavation, core holes or bore holes. The results inform safer designs, mitigate costly surprises, and ensure compliance with regulatory and technical standards.

SOCOTEC’s geophysical services support critical projects across public infrastructure, energy, industrial and commercial projects, environmental site, military and defense sectors, and more—delivering the subsurface clarity needed to build with confidence.
