About Fugro
Geo-data lies at the heart of Fugro’s work: information related to the Earth’s surface, subsurface, and everything built on it. With the company’s technology, people, and expertise, Fugro acquires Geo-data, analyzes it, and uses it to advise its clients. As pioneers in understanding the Earth, the company contributes to the global energy transition, safe infrastructure, urban and coastal resilience, and protection of the natural environment. Fugro is ambitious and wants to continue leading the industry with ground-breaking innovations.
Examples of Fugro’s project portfolio are site characterization and foundation design for offshore wind farms, the inspection of offshore assets with USVs (uncrewed surface vessels), the installation of monitoring systems on vital infrastructures such as bridges and railroad tracks, and mapping of coastlines for flood defense programs. Other projects the company supports are, for example, hydrogen plants, pipelines, cables, power stations, power lines, bridges, airports, roads, tunnels, and monitoring of ecosystems. Fugro provides cost-effective solutions to ensure safety and sustainability.
At Fugro, around ten thousand people across 59 countries support a broad range of clients. The company, headquartered in Leidschendam (the Netherlands) and listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange, is truly committed to maintaining its position as the most innovative Geo-data company, by focusing heavily on its people and technology, including uncrewed surface vessels, robotics, remote operations, advanced analytics and insightful Geo-data platforms.
