Site investigation and characterisation
We act on site conditions with clarity
Acteon delivers marine and offshore site investigation services that help operators plan, design and build with confidence. From seabed mapping to advanced geotechnical engineering, we provide critical data and expert interpretation to support safe, efficient infrastructure development.
By combining innovative survey tools, proven workflows and regional delivery, we reduce complexity and accelerate insight - whether planning a cable route, installing a foundation or managing risk in frontier locations.
Our solutions
Geophysical and geotechnical surveys
Subsea surveys and geotechnical engineering that support smarter routing, foundation and design decisions across offshore infrastructure projects.
Geospatial surveys
High-quality geospatial data and mapping solutions that support compliance, asset integrity and environmental performance throughout the offshore lifecycle.
Solving offshore planning and design challenges
Understanding site conditions is essential for safety, sustainability and performance offshore - but traditional survey models can be slow and inflexible. Acteon transforms site investigation with intelligent tools and integrated delivery that reduce emissions, shorten timelines and improve decision confidence.
Unlocking clarity in complex conditions
Whether in deepwater, harsh climates or congested seabeds, we combine digital tools and offshore expertise to provide the data needed for accurate planning and risk mitigation.
Reducing survey cost, time and emissions
Our portable, modular systems enable faster mobilisation, lower fuel use and local vessel sourcing - minimising environmental impact and offshore exposure.
Supporting confident decisions across the lifecycle
From topographical surveys to deepwater boreholes, we help operators generate and apply site data effectively - improving safety, reducing rework and enabling smarter design and installation.
Supporting the full project lifecycle
Our site investigation and characterisation services support offshore energy infrastructure from the earliest project stages. We provide data and insight that inform permitting, foundation design, routing, risk management and installation - helping move from desktop studies to construction with clarity and control.
2H, Acteon’s Engineering consultancy, provides specification and engineering analysis/interpretation of geophysical and geotechnical data for our projects. For independent advice, contact the 2H team directly.
