We have retained GRC’s Geologist (Ahmed Saeed Siddiqui) to carry out structural geology assessments to support pit slope design studies at our mines within Oman. Ahmed and his team have collaborated well with existing mine geology staff and contractors to achieve our aims. The team were able to develop accurate structural geology models in complex environments, that have allowed mine planning and geotechnical departments to progress.
GRC has brough an innovative and motivated remediation strategy together for our project. Data/reports were timely, accurate and complete. Follow up with us to ensure project success was exemplary.
GRC and the Environmental team were dedicated to the success of their contract with us and provided excellent dialogue to the stakeholders involved. We were very satisfied with the overall project. All team members were knowledgeable in their field of expertise.
GRC has operated the soil vapour extraction system for two years. The project had been shelved for a number of years prior to start-up. They brought the system back up to speed, ensuring conduit was correctly fitted and placed correctly in the soil for thorough ventilation. A thoroughly proactive team, making the project successful.
We engaged GRC International to provide us with a geophysical training platform for our graduates during 2020.
We were impressed with the benefit that the program brought to the graduates for our seismic project. Our graduate trainees felt motivated to learn on site. The program is very well structured and covers new technology. As we were using Nodes for the first time, the modules covered all the technical aspects as well as the practical applications in the field. HSSE was covered in every respect as part of the modules, by engaging the graduates to take responsibility and to participate fully in HSE to continually develop, implement and improve the HSE Management System.
We have contracted Geo Resources Consultancy for our seismic campaign during 2016. The consultants provided expertise, experience and were proactive with the contractor, providing them with guidance on ‘Best Practices’ in the field to ensure that the data was the best it could be. HSSE was always at the forefront of their thinking, setting a clear example to the contractor.
GRC have completed multiple assignments for us over the past 10 years, assisting on structural geology reviews as part of exploration reviews, resource estimates and geotechnical studies. The work completed with competence, delivered to a high standard, on time and on budget with clear concise communication of results.
