Ruden Geo Services partner of SINTEF CO2 Field Lab





At the Svelvik ridge, south of Oslo, a CO2 field laboratory has been established, to enable the creation of a well-monitored and a well-characterized geological environment to ensure safe injection of CO2.

In this project, SINTEF and its partners drilled 5 wells to 100m depth. Ruden Geo Services assisted during the mudlogging of these wells while drilling and performed well logging to enable establishing the geological model. Afterwards, the wells were completed and provided with a large selection of monitoring tools. At 14 November 2019, the project area was officially opened, and can now be used by various research institutes to test CO2 injection in a safe and controlled environment.

Leirvarsling for Norge

Ruden AS har utarbeidet metoder for risikovurderinger før, -under og etter byggestart! Med vår unike metode reduserer vi risikoen for ras, skred og kvikkleireskader i utbyggingsområder.



Ved å kombinere geofysikk, geologi og moderne overvåkningsteknologi, gir vi entreprenører, rådgivere og offentlige aktører et smart varslingssystem for kvikkleire og grunnforhold – slik at du kan bygge tryggere, smartere og mer bærekraftig.


Vi kaller det ‘Leirvarslingen’.

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.
