Meet our offshore energy experts: site investigation geoscientist Nicholas Jones
Meet Nick Jones from Tetra Tech RPS Energy. His site investigation team helps offshore developers understand important characteristics of their site.
Marine site investigation and geoscience
The detail your project needs, tailored to the questions you need to answer
In offshore energy and infrastructure development, understanding a proposed site’s geological conditions is a crucial step. This happens at an early stage, supporting the selection of sites for development and before investment decisions can be made.
Our Geoscience Consulting team provides comprehensive, high-quality site characterisation. We advise on sites’ geological constraints, how these will impact design, and the cost implications – providing comprehensive recommendations tailored to engineering and development needs.
We have a wealth of experience supporting clients’ offshore wind, oil and gas, nuclear waste storage, and infrastructure projects around the world. Working with our Site Operations team, we support you throughout the entire process of understanding your site’s physical characteristics.
