Nearshore Geotechnical Insights

Shallow Water Geotechnical Survey

Geosonic supports nearshore infrastructure and landfall projects with targeted geotechnical investigations. Working with specialist partners, we collect soil data in intertidal and shallow water zones to characterise ground conditions and correlate with geophysical results. This integrated approach provides the soil parameters needed for foundation design, construction planning, and safe delivery of coastal and subsea assets.

Typical services provided include:

• Grab sampling and core sampling in intertidal/shallow waters
• Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) in nearshore zones
• Vibrocore acquisition for soil profiling
• Seabed sampling to ground-truth geophysical data
• Nearshore boreholes for foundation analysis
• Soil classification and geotechnical laboratory testing
• Integration of geotechnical and geophysical results
