Our multi-disciplinary capability and expertise across deep and near-surface geophysics gives us the ability to resolve all survey challenges. Our team of highly qualified professionals is able to mobilise multiple techniques to solve every investigation need to fully satisfy our clients.
A MESSAGE FROM MANAGING DIRECTOR
Andrew Sloot (BSc)
“I founded Fender Geophysics in 2008 with a clear objective to become the premier geophysical service provider in the industry. My aim has always been to develop a collegiate team culture that is committed to delivering geophysical services at the highest industry standard; to using the best technology; and to providing high quality data efficiently and cost-effectively.
Our highly professional and qualified team provides confidence to our clients that we will provide the best solution for them. I have built a team that are highly experienced and well-qualified industry veterans supported by the best field-tested graduates. Many of the team members are experts in different methodologies giving us the ability to undertake all forms of geophysical survey in nearly all environments and to develop a wide range of survey solutions that we can tailor to all investigations.
We have been growing steadily which is a testament to the skills and commitment of the team. We judge our success by our growth and on the high levels of client satisfaction we receive. The level of satisfaction is clear from the highly complementary feedback we receive from the clients and consultants who engage us and the industry groups we work with.
Our professional team provides comfort and confidence to our clients that we will deliver the solutions they require.”
