1st Line Defence - Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) Non-intrusive Survey

UXO Surveys are an innovative, state-of-the-art ground investigation technique used to identify any unusual characteristics in the subsurface to locate buried targets – including items of UXO. We provide a variety of Non-intrusive UXO Survey services (walkover, towed or Drone) and the type of survey we recommend is dependent on the risk level, ground conditions and the proposed scope of ground works. This service is Ideal for site projects which are located on undeveloped land or marine environments with little extraneous ferrous contamination. In good ground conditions, a Non-Intrusive UXO Survey can detect a 50kg bomb up to 4m below the surface. It is also ideal for locating smaller and more shallow-buried items such as grenades, mortars and projectiles. The survey specification we recommend will be suitable for the detection of UXO, and additional survey techniques can also be included within the specification of the geophysical survey to provide additional value to your project.
