Osiris Projects have an extensive track record in providing all types of high quality geophysical data and detailed interpretation.
The majority of the company's work involves the collection of high resolution continuous, single channel, 'boomer' or 'sparker' shallow seismic reflection profiling data, for a range of applications.
The relatively recent advent of the UK's offshore wind farm developments has created a requirement for ever increasing volumes of sub-bottom profiling data in order to map the detailed geology over large areas of coastal seabed identified for potential development. During 2010 Osiris Projects topped the 50,000 line km milestone of data acquisition on UK offshore wind farm sites. The company has invested heavily in data acquisition systems and digital processing systems in order to efficiently manage such large quantities of data.
The geophysical survey tools owned by the company allow us to address a wide range of applications, from sediment thickness profiling using a high frequency pinger system, to mapping of rock head profile and structure hundreds of metres below the seabed using a multi-channel streamer and mini-airgun source.
Techniques offered by the company include:
- Single channel analogue sub-bottom profiling
- Multi-channel 2D digital seismic profiling
- Marine seismic refraction
- Inter-tidal and land seismic refraction
- Magnetometer and gradiometer survey
- Electromagnetic (EM) including seabed resistivity survey
