Introduction

GeoConsult is active in Geotechnical Engineering, Engineering Geology, Geohydrology and Environmental Engineering.

The company was set up in 1993 and is based in Haarlem, The Netherlands. Since then projects have been carried out for various clients from industry, government and private parties.

GeoConsult provides a variety of services, such as consulting, participation in projects, research and advice on legal disputes. Where field- or laboratory data are required, third parties may conduct site investigations in order to provide the necessary data.

GeoConsult has completed many multidisciplinary projects in co-operation with larger and smaller companies.

Our completed projects vary widely and include geotechnical design, dewatering design, feasibility studies, tender research, claim research, construction support and regional research for land subsidence. GeoConsult has been contributing to large infrastructure projects, such as High Speed Rail Link between Amsterdam and Brussels (HSL-Zuid), the Cargo Rail Link between Rotterdam and the German Ruhr area (Betuwe Line) and the North-South Metro link in Amsterdam.

Research projects in the field of environmental engineering have been conducted in order to study the effects of land subsidence, resulting from the extraction of natural gas and the lowering of surface water levels in the polders in the northern provinces of Groningen and Friesland.
