On a project for Statens Vegvesen, Ruden Geo Services tested the possibility to perform seismic reflection on water. This technique is widely used in the Oil & Gas industry, but is still in a research phase on this smaller scale for geotechnical purposes. Statens Vegvesen published a nice article describing the work in the article below (in Norwegian).

Deep Coastal Groundwater: A Vast, Untapped Resource


As 2.2 billion people globally lack clean water, coastal aquifers hold the key for at least 1.45 billion.


Research suggest that coastal sedimentary basins contain enough freshwater to supply more than 65% of water-stressed populations - using existing drilling technology from the energy sector.

Ruden received funding from the Norwegian Space Center for a feasibility assessment for climate adaptation of low-lying islands – Remote sensing for hydraulic uplift monitoring.

Every year, The Norwegian Spacecenter (Norsk Romsenter) invites organisations to apply for supplementary funds. This year, 25 organisations received funding, and Ruden is one of them.
