We are the principal association for geotechnical engineers in the United Kingdom.
Wireline (borehole) geophysical logging (WGL) is often considered a valuable complementary service and source of geo-data for ground investigations, deep and shallow lithological formation characterisation, and geo-engineering parameterisation.
Balazs Rigler details that WGL forms an essential part of Fugro’s recently developed Ground Risk Management Framework (GRMF). Quite a few well established WGL methods, which also could add great value to ground risk assessments are still not utilised for geotechnical ground investigations.
In his presentation, Balazs focuses on the benefits and applicability of key and state of the art wireline geophysical logging methods and related geo-data solution packages in geotechnical, hydrogeological, and geological contexts.

Fugro
wireline geophysical logging services manager
Balazs Rigler (Fugro) is the wireline geophysical logging services manager of Fugro in the UK and has a professional background as a geophysical and GIS engineer.
Balazs has more than 20 years of experience in applied geophysics and more specifically in wireline geophysical logging from the last 15 years of his career.
Balazs managed many various wireline logging operations in small and large scale for infrastructure, nuclear, tunnelling, windfarm and other renewables, mining, water and geotechnical clients utilising broad range of state of the art and innovative geophysical methods such as the downhole (nuclear) magnetic resonance.

A series of web-based workshops aimed at graduate, student and technician members who are working toward EngTech, IEng or CEng with the ICE. These workshops provide advice and guidance on recording Initial Professional Development (IPD), broken down by attribute.

This is an opportunity for Technician members (EngTech MICE/FICE) and those wishing to become qualified at EngTech grade to come together to discuss issues that are important to technicians. This session explores becoming an ICE EngTech reviewer, with benefits and applying.

Join the ECNet for this technical webinar about the design of active travel infrastructure. Two Incorporated Engineers from Mott MacDonald will share key learning from a redevelopment scheme focusing on active travel, and a new layout for the design of CYCLOPS junctions.
