Technological Innovation Crucial for Ensuring Sustainability

Visionary players are harnessing this transformation for sustainable development to guarantee a prosperous future. A case in point is the collection and analysis of comprehensive information about the Earth and the structures built on it. The right use of this geological data, or geo-data, can unlock precious insights for companies to design, build and operate assets in a safe, sustainable and efficient manner.

Fugro is the world’s leading geo-data specialist working to create a safe and livable world. Through integrated data acquisition, analysis and advice, Fugro generates value and reduces risks in projects. It is backed by a group of approximately 400 engineers and scientists fully dedicated to R&D worldwide and more than 57 years of experience. Fugro’s acquisition of geological data is carried out on land, in the air and at sea. The company’s state-of-the-art technology allows it to undertake research safely, efficiently and in a manner respectful to the environment. Fugro’s services are also based on digital technology, providing highly accurate 3D information on infrastructure and energy applications. These include renewable energy, enabling effective project decision-making. Fugro has also developed several autonomous vehicles whose highly efficient operation contributes to sustainable solutions, contributing to a lower carbon footprint.

Furthermore, Fugro has developed software applications for data analysis and interpretation. Its data integration solutions enable its clients to access large blocks of cloud-based information anywhere and at all times. This also allows Fugro to offer tools that carry out virtual simulations for both marine and land infrastructure projects with a degree of precision that generates significant savings in the design and planning stages of projects. Its technology also reduces the risk for human beings, as it enhances the possibilities for managing operations remotely. The company makes it possible for some operations be controlled from the safety and comfort of a command center, often located hundreds of kilometers away from the location where the operation is carried out.

Fugro’s technology allows its clients to carry out installation operations of monitored structures in a safe manner, backed by reliable, real-time data, which is processed with tested methodologies. This expertise not only reduces the risk of human error, but also empowers operators to plan intelligently and maximize resources, furthering environmental responsibility while simultaneously increasing efficiency
