・Civil engineering
・Environmental management
・Geothermal resource development
・Marine mineral resource exploration
・Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS)
Our Vision for a Sustainable Future
Driven by the growing imperative for sustainability and the expansion of ESG investment, the social and industrial structure is currently undergoing a period of dynamic transformation toward a carbon-neutral, decarbonized society.
We are deeply committed to realizing a 2050 carbon-neutral society and contributing to the construction of a resilient social system. We will achieve this by leveraging our extensive experience and excellent comprehensive technological capabilities in exploration services.
Furthermore, we will continue to propose innovative solutions to global energy and environmental challenges by applying our specialized expertise in revealing detailed subsurface structures-ranging from shallow to deep-across a wide array of areas, both onshore and offshore.
We sincerely appreciate your continued support and understanding.
