TDI-Brooks completes geotechnical survey in the Gulf of Campeche, Mexico
TDI-Brooks, as a subcontractor of Drebbel de Mexico out of Cd. del Carmen, successfully and safely completed a geotechnical coring campaign. TDI-Brooks deployed its geotechnical coring tools and operators on the Laguana Azul. A total of one-hundred fifty-eight gravity CPTs (gCPTs) and eight T-Bars in three pipeline corridors was performed.
The TDI-Brooks suite of innovative geotechnical tools is specifically tailored for soil sampling and measurement purposes. This includes a wide range of equipment such as box corers (BC), piston corers (PC), gravity corers (GC), jumbo piston corers (JPC), vibracorers (VC/pVC), cyclic t-bar instrument (TBAR), deep-reaching Shelby tube samplers (SPLR), and piezocone penetrometers, including our CPT-Stinger and Gravity CPT tools (gCPT).
In addition to their offshore geotechnical sampling tool kits, TDI-Brooks also offers soil testing services through their in-house geotechnical laboratory.
