NGI - Norwegian Geotechnical Institute is based in Trondheim and offers specialized consultancy and research in geotechnics and engineering geology. The institute has a broad focus on natural hazards such as landslides, earthquakes and floods, as well as climate change and its impact on the environment. With expertise in contaminated land and offshore development, including CO2 storage (CCS), NGI contributes to sustainable solutions in engineering projects.
The institute uses geophysical methods for ground investigations and offers real-time monitoring and remote sensing as part of its services. Laboratory testing in geotechnics and geochemistry is also an important part of the business, where digitization technology and numerical calculations are used to improve the projects' quality and safety. NGI participates in international cooperation, which strengthens their competence and the exchange of knowledge across national borders.
