Our researchers have made a fundamental contribution with the development of LightTouchTM – a Shell proprietary ultrasensitive, technologically advanced gas sensing survey method.
In fourteen years of cooperation with Shell, we have delivered multi-million dollar savings and improved the delivery of efficient survey data, substantially decreasing the economic impact associated with unsuccessful drilling.
