Onshore and Offshore Services

Core logging operations are conducted within our purpose-built core logging laboratory based at our offices in Daventry, UK, or within our mobile containerised laboratories. Geotek will mobilise these containerised laboratories with specialist staff to both onshore and offshore sites for industrial and research applications to acquire data in the field, saving valuable time and money.
