Geoquip Marine’s drilling expertise means that the company is able to satisfy even the most highly specialised of client requirements. Recent client projects have included drilling to a few hundred metres below the seabed to detect shallow gas pockets prior to the drilling of an oil well, as well as the drilling of a hole to install instrumentation for long-term monitoring of a reservoir or structure. Headquartered in Switzerland, we have operations in the UK and West Africa and operate on behalf of clients in the Middle East, Africa and the Far East, with drilling and geotechnical teams present in all of these locations throughout the year.
