Geophysical services are increasingly being used to help in environmental site assessments. These services involve the use of advanced techniques and equipment to identify subsurface conditions.
Geophysical service companies have many advantages to offer clients. They have specialized expertise and experience in the field of geophysical exploration and can provide access to specialized equipment and technology, which can significantly reduce exploration and development costs.

They are often used to detect the presence of contaminants in the soil or groundwater. They can also be used to detect the presence of hazardous waste, underground storage tanks, and other potential sources of contamination.
They can also be used to detect any potential faults or subsurface fractures which could cause instability at a site. These services can also be used to detect areas of subsurface water that may pose a risk of flooding. This helps to ensure that any construction activity is conducted in a safe and responsible manner.
They can also be used to detect potential sources of air pollution. These services can also be used to identify areas of subsurface water that may be vulnerable to contamination. This helps to protect the environment by identifying areas that may be at risk of contamination.
In addition to identifying potential sources of contamination and other hazards, they can also be used to detect underground infrastructure. This helps to ensure that any construction activities do not interfere with existing infrastructure and services.
