Geo-Engineering.org GmbH has two specially equipped mobile 20" laboratory containers. Both are GL certified sea containers, which are ideal for offshore operations on jack-up barges and ships, but also for onshore operations, for example on construction sites.

The laboratory containers are equipped for several task. Sedimentological and soil mechanical examination of core samples as well as evaluation and documentation of other on-site incoming data (e.g. CPT test, navigation) can be done. Both containers are air-conditioned, heated and fully isolated.

Laboratory container

Sedimentological and soil mechanical processing, evaluation and documentation

Geo-Engineering.org GmbH has two specially equipped mobile 20" laboratory containers. Both are GL certified sea containers, which are ideal for offshore operations on jack-up barges and ships, but also for onshore operations, for example on construction sites.

The laboratory containers are equipped for several task. Sedimentological and soil mechanical examination of core samples as well as evaluation and documentation of other on-site incoming data (e.g. CPT test, navigation) can be done. Both containers are air-conditioned, heated and fully isolated.

Equipment of both laboratory containers:

Besides the listed equipment, the laboratory containers can also be equipped with satellite-phone, Internet and Wi-Fi or a DGPS-System, that can help positioning and navigating the Jack-Up Barge.

On request, our laboratory containers can also be rented for your research campaign.

Photo desk: Camera, lighting with daylight spectrum for full-scale documentation of the opened drill cores

Munsell Color Scale and sand standard gauge for professional evaluation of color of soil- and rock-samples and for the determination of grain sizes (sand-fraction)

Respectively as help for the determination of grain sizes (sand-fraction)

Pocket-penetrometer to derive the undrained shear strength of cohesive samples

Manually operated vane apparatus to determine the shear strength of cohesive samples

Cutter cylinder and drying oven for taking soil samples of certain volumes for the determination of water content as well as wet and dry density.

Decoupled scale of different measuring scales and precision

Data recording- and presentation-software "GeODin", used for digital display of drilling- and sounding-profiles but also test results
