Offshore Geotechnical Drilling

Fugro Seacore's offshore marine drills provide capability to undertake drilling operations from vessels of opportunity in water depths ranging from 15 - 2500m.

The drills are designed to allow them to be easily transported or shipped to locations worldwide. We have mobilised our drills for locations ranging from the Arctic, Central Europe and the Antarctic.

The drills are motion-compensated thus providing a "stationary" drill string in relation to the seabed. Typical operations include geotechnical drilling for downhole testing and sampling, including:

  • Rock coring with wireline tools or via piggyback coring techniques.
  • Support to the oil & gas industry for alternative operations requiring a heave compensation derrick.
