About Fugro Instruments

FUGRO CORPORATE

Renamed in January 2002 following the acquisition by Fugro NV of The Netherlands of several of Australia's pre-eminent geophysical product and service providers (GeoInstruments, Geoterrex-Dighem, Tesla-10 and Scintrex) Fugro Instruments has the expertise to be the preferred choice for geophysical instruments and software.

Our competitive advantage comes from a strong customer focus offering leading-edge solutions and services, backed by reliability in our products and outstanding after-sales support. Our offerings extend to a worldwide network of representative offices that can assist on a local level, or our commitment to rapid responses to enquiries directed to our base in Sydney, Australia.




SALES & RENTALS

Fugro Instruments services the Australasia-Pacific region with the largest, most extensive range of geophysical products from the most reputable manufacturers of North America, United Kingdom, Europe and Australia. We offer products for the vast majority of earth scientific survey applications in the geophysical exploration, engineering, environmental and geotechnical industry sectors.

The modern-day requirements for non-invasive, non-destructive geophysical techniques is at the forefront of the minds of all manufacturers we represent, and as such there are many innovative instruments available that minimise ground disturbance.

To complement the equipment, we can offer a wide range of cost-effective software solutions for land, marine and airborne applications for the acquisition, processing, interpretation and presentation of geophysical, geological and geotechnical data.




SERVICING & REPAIRS

Fugro Instruments has an established background in the servicing and repairs of all types of land, marine and airborne geophysical equipment.

The origins of our repair facility and capabilities are with one of the companies acquired by Fugro in 2001 - Geo Instruments, which was formed in August 1986 from the purchase of the assets in Australia of Geometrics Inc. of California, by the Kevron Group. At that time Geometrics International Corporation were performing airborne surveys, and key personnel were retained to provide a continuity of their experience through to the activities of the new company. The end result is a group of technical staff pre-eminent in their particular specialities, together encompassing a vast store of technical knowledge.

As our customers can attest, our technical capabilities extend to superior after-sales support, with every effort being made to respond to service and repair enquiries with the fastest possible turnaround time.




MANUFACTURING

In addition to representing best-of-breed manufacturers across all techniques, Fugro Instruments is also a manufacturer of products for the mineral and petroleum exploration markets.

Since 1992, the GMS-2 Magnetic Susceptibility Meter, and the GCM-2 Hand-held Conductivity Meter, have been manufactured in Sydney and sold worldwide. Similarly there is a high-powered transmitter manufactured for EM surveys.

Fugro Instruments has selected a group of reputable agents in key locations in all major countries, for distribution of these products




USED EQUIPMENT SALES

In efforts to maintain the latest equipment in rental inventories, many manufacturers offer very cost-effective used equipment packages, and Fugro Instruments can source used equipment should you require it.
