Oil and Mineral Exploration
Fugro NPA specialises in a range of techniques for both onshore and offshore exploration. Onshore, their expertise in structural geological interpretation and mineral mapping is increasingly complemented by newer applications such as seismic planning, subsidence mapping and reservoir modelling. Offshore, NPA's Global Offshore Seep Project uses SAR data to detect oil seepage from potential reservoirs.

“For women who do not love us, as for the “disappeared”, knowing that we no longer have any hope does not prevent us form continuing to wait.
