History

Recognizable complexity of the methodic approach and profoundness of geological interpretation characterize geophysical exploration and research domestically and abroad since more than 55 years. With our divisions seismics, potential methods and geotechnics we offer you the almost complete spectrum of geophysical services. The activities are oriented towards reservoir exploration and near surface prospection as well as to perform investigations of foundation soil and into environmental protection. Our company sees itself as an independent partner for the oil and gas industry, the mining industry, civil engineering, federal public authorities as well as universities and research institutes.	1951 1952 Reflexionsseismik, Türkei 1991
