Overview of Services

Services

From a diverse range of fixed-wing (airplane) and helicopter platforms, Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services in conjunction with Fugro Airborne Surveys acquires electromagnetic, magnetic, radiometric and gravity data. These highly specialized remote sensing capabilities are critical to the subsurface exploration needs of the oil & gas, engineering and environmental communities.

An Overview of Airborne Geophysics

Introduction

Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services with Fugro Airborne Surveys sets the standard for airborne magnetic and gravity surveys with an exclusive suite of fixed wing and helicopter systems, supported by advanced data processing and imaging techniques.

Services

Survey Planning

Our staff of professional geophysicists, located in all corners of the globe, are available to help you determine how our surveys can assist your exploration or engineering project. We work to learn about your project and understand your requirements in order to assist you with obtaining your survey objectives and the best possible solution. Critical information gathered includes purpose of survey, specifics of area to be surveyed, type of target, estimated depth to target, background geophysical information, field and final products required and scheduling requirements. We provide assistance in determining appropriate flight line spacing and orientation, instrumentation to be employed, co-ordination with local authorities, safety issues and more. Once an appreciation of your survey needs has been determined, our experts can offer a wealth of knowledge and experience to ensure that the most appropriate and best technology is employed to successfully complete your project.

Data Acquisition

The primary exploration technologies offered by the group are airborne electromagnetics, magnetics, radiometrics and gravity. State-of-the-art acquisition begins with pre-flight planning and attention to detail in all phases of the project.

Products

Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services with Fugro Airborne Surveys has flown and processed data of thousands of airborne geophysical surveys throughout the world - for petroleum exploration to environmental and engineering applications. State-of-the-art hardware and software represent only a portion of our data processing capabilities. Fugro Airborne Surveys' staff of experienced and knowledgeable geophysicists process and interpret the data and take pride in their hands-on attention to detail and thoroughness.   

These processing teams are backed by sophisticated and totally integrated in-house facilities for image processing of geophysical data, CAD data capture, map production, 3D modeling and products, GIS merging and analysis of digital spatial datasets. 

This range of skills provides a unique "one-stop" approach to the management of environmental, mineral and oil exploration programs.

Integration of information from complementary datasets is a powerful part of the Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services interpretation method and leads to a comprehensive understanding of the structural history and geological evolution of an area - a vital part of any exploration program.

Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services' specialized UNIX and PC-based software allows the production of a complete suite of geophysical products in the field. In-field processing and map production capability ensures compliance with the detailed and strict standards with respect to the calibration, acquisition and processing and facilitates production of quick and accurate preliminary results. As the field software system is identical to that used in our worldwide processing centers, field QC, processing and plotting can be passed onto the office for final processing and plotting seamlessly and efficiently. 

Non-Exclusive Data

Fugro Gravity & Magnetic Services houses the most comprehensive, privately owned, non-exclusive geophysical database. The database equates to approximately 14,000,000 line kilometers of AeroMagnetic data and 1,200,000 line kilometers of Marine Gravity & Magnetic data worldwide. Data may be licensed for entire surveys or for specific areas of interest. Land gravity data is also available.
