The UK Geoenergy Observatories will be world-leading research facilities, opening up our understanding of the world beneath our feet as never before.
Providing independent and expert geological advice, research and data acquisition to anyone working in the marine environment.
Scientists have identified a potential new tsunami risk in Indonesia by mapping below the seabed of the Makassar Strait.
Shrink–swell, or expansive, soils are one of the most costly and widespread geological hazards globally, with costs estimated to run into several billion pounds annually.
The BGS-led UK Geoenergy Observatories project is shining a light on the subsurface’s potential to provide geothermal energy.
In June 2024, a UK/Kenya research team shared research findings from a collaborative, four-year field and experimental programme within Kenya.
BGS uses unpiloted aerial systems (UAS), or drones, to collect data for geological investigations, mapping and surveying, and for promotional purposes.
Continuing BGS's sustained track record of energy storage research, which will underpin future laboratory, field and GIS-based activities and commissions.
