Industrial projects
Site investigations and piling for heavy industrial facilities, including the Tosyali Sulb steel plant and the Benghazi Cement Plant.
Ground investigation, deep foundations, geophysics and mining
From sample to engineering decision.
Build on knowledge, not assumptions.
Before anything rises above ground, there are questions below it that need answers. We answer them with careful fieldwork, a well equipped laboratory, and a team that has spent years around drill rigs and load tests across Libya.
From the field.
To informed engineering decisions.

02Sectors we serve
Different sectors,
one ground we understand.
You are looking for an answer to your site problem before a service name. These are the sectors we have worked in.
Buildings and infrastructure
Site investigations for buildings and infrastructure, with foundation recommendations and allowable bearing capacity.
Mining and quarries
Limestone exploration, resource estimation and quarry planning, including the Jardian quarry study with 80 boreholes.
Marine and coastal works
Onshore and offshore investigation capability within our drilling and sampling scope.
03Our services
A dedicated service
for every layer of your project.
From the first sample to the final report, and from subsurface studies to quarry planning. Pick the service closest to your project, or tell us what you have and we will find the starting point together.
01GROUND INVESTIGATION
Soil and rock investigation
Boreholes, sampling and laboratory and field testing, turned into reports and recommendations that designers and contractors can rely on.
02PILING & FOUNDATIONS
Piling and deep foundations
Bored and driven piles in a range of diameters, load testing, and foundation works that carry the heaviest structures.
03GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS
Geophysical surveys
Electrical and seismic methods that map the subsurface before any real digging begins.
04MINING ENGINEERING
Mining engineering
From geological mapping and resource estimation to quarry planning and operations management.

05Our capabilities
Fully equipped,
in the field and in the lab.
Equipment alone is never enough, but in the hands of a team that knows its work, it makes the difference. These are our main capabilities.
01Drilling and sampling
Onshore and offshore investigations, disturbed and undisturbed soil sampling, and rock coring.
02Laboratory and field testing
A soil and materials laboratory, classification, strength and deformation tests, rock and concrete testing, and field measurements.
03Piling and load testing
Pile installation in multiple diameters, and a static load testing system with a stated capacity of up to 1,400 tons.
04Geophysical survey systems
Electrical and seismic measurement systems, including SYSCAL Pro Switch 72 and ABEM Terraloc Pro 2.
