In-House Drilling Arm — STS Geotechnics

The Rigs.
The Crews. The Data.

GeoSense Drilling & Engineering is STS Geotechnics' dedicated drilling and field investigation arm — supporting STS's engineering with our own fleet, crews, and AS 1726 field logging on every project.

What We Do

Field Data STS
Engineers Can Trust.

GeoSense provides the drilling, sampling, and in-situ testing behind every STS Geotechnics report. Where STS brings the engineering judgement, GeoSense brings the rigs, the crews, and the data.

We work to the same scope and the same point of contact as STS's engineers — field records are logged by qualified engineering geologists and handed straight to STS for analysis, with no handoff to a disconnected subcontractor.

Because the drilling is in-house, the data behind every report stays in-house too — captured by our own crews and fed straight into STS's engineering team, so the investigation and the recommendation are delivered as one seamless, blended process rather than separate, disconnected stages.
