“Science, my lad, is made up of mistakes, but they are mistakes which it is useful to make, because they lead
little by little to the truth.”

Jules Verne, Journey to the Centre of the Earth.

We retain strong links with academia and are involved in cutting edge research, so we are ideally positioned to bridge the gap between scientific rigour and commercial development. Maintaining close ties with our origins in the Department of Earth Sciences at Durham University, and many other universities globally, we are able to deliver innovative and world leading solutions to geoscience problems.
