Supporting the Energy Sector With Precision
The Marcellus and Utica shale formations have transformed the energy landscape in West Virginia. With that growth comes the need for accurate, compliant, and timely surveying. Our team works directly with energy developers, engineers, and landowners to provide the data needed for safe and efficient site development.
We understand the regulatory requirements and environmental considerations involved in gas well and pipeline projects. Our surveys help ensure your project meets all local, state, and federal standards.
