Detailed information of the seafloor and the sub-seabed strata is required for a wide variety of applications. Geophysical surveys are conducted to secure this data to in order assess:

• Seafloor topography and geomorphology
• Natural and man-made objects, hazards and obstructions on the seafloor
• Seafloor and sub-seabed soil conditions
• Buried natural and man-made objects and features

Novus Geosolutions utilizes state-of-the-art equipment and experienced personnel to perform nearshore and offshore geophysical surveys to present reliable and accurate data and information required for various applications such as:

• Hazard surveys for clearance of area during 2D and 3D seismic surveys
• Site surveys at locations for rig positioning, platforms and other marine infrastructure
• Pre-engineering survey for assessment of platform / jacket sites and pipeline/cable routes, SPMs and other marine infrastructure
• Pre-construction surveys prior to installation of the subsea infrastructure
• Post-construction /as-built survey subsequent to the installation of the marine assets
• Post-con• Route clearance surveys for ships and barges

• Small boat and /or supply vessel
• Precision DGPS systems
• Navigation / data acquisition software and systems
• Tide stations
• Heave compensators / motion sensors
• USBL systems for precise positioning of towed sensors
• Single-beam and multi-beam echosounders
• Sidescan sonars
• Sub-bottom profilers – sparker / boomer / pinger systems
• Marine magnetometers
• Drop corers and grab samplers
