EMU Acquires New Equipment to Expand Geotechnical Services (UK)

EMU’s Geotechnical department has expanded its services and now boasts the latest, class leading, marine soil investigation equipment.

This includes three and six metre variable frequency vibrocores, Datem Neptune 5000 heavyweight CPT, gravity and piston corers and a number of various sediment sampling grabs.

EMU’s continued investment in equipment, as well as commitment to research and design in both geotechnical and geophysical survey techniques, means that the most innovative solutions are available to offshore developers for investigating and quickly progressing their developments.

EMU employs the most up-to-date equipment available. By combining this with an in-house team of geotechnical experts EMU is well placed to advise clients on the right hardware and most efficient techniques to ensure the best quality data and core samples are obtained within budget and timeframe. Demonstrating this, EMU has recently successfully completed a project which included more than 1000 PCPT pushes for the cable routes of several German offshore wind farm sites.

In combination with our own specialist core analysis laboratories, which undertake comprehensive physical and chemical testing, EMU provides the complete geotechnical turnkey solution.
