UXO Safety Support Services

OPEC can provide qualified UXO Technicians to provide UXO Safety Support Services for activities being undertaken in areas with a UXO Contamination Risk.  This includes activities such as

  • surveying and mapping
  • environmental, heritage, vegetation and natural resource assessments
  • surface and subsurface soil and water sampling
  • boring and drilling
  • groundwater monitoring
  • well establishment and sampling.

The UXO Technician will provide onsite Safety Assurance through UXO Safety Briefs, point clearance, Pathfinding and UXO avoidance.

Geophysical Survey  

OPEC utilises the UltraTEM-IV - Advanced Geophysical Classification Technology for geophysical surveys for the detection of sub-surface UXO.  The  UltraTEM-IV is validated by DAGCAP for Advanced Geophysical Classification (AGC).  No other system in Australia has passed this rigorous hardware validation process. This means the UltraTEM can detect and classify anomalies on a single pass, resulting in lower survey costs, less false positives and less targets to investigate.  

For more information on UltraTEM technology and systems please contact us.
