Om oss
NGI is an independent international centre for research and consultancy in engineering-related geosciences, integrating geotechnical, geological and geophysical expertise. We find good and sustainable solutions for building infrastructure on land and at sea, and within environmental technology, contaminated soil and natural hazards – such as landslides and avalanches. Our research provides knowledge required to solve some of the most important challenges facing the world related to climate, environment, energy and natural hazards. Our core tasks are to contribute with research and consulting to societal development. The research at NGI should be relevant, so our results can be used by the market and benefit society, business and industry. Research and consultancy therefore go hand in hand. Our research integrates knowledge across geotechnics, geology and geophysics. Public authorities, business and private industry in Norway and abroad use our geo-expertise to ensure that we build our society on safe ground. Our head office and laboratories are in Oslo, Norway, with a branch office in Trondheim, Norway, and an avalanche research station on Mount Strynefjellet in western Norway. We have overseas offices and a geotechnical laboratory in Houston, Texas, USA, and office in Perth, Western Australia, as well as partnership agreements with well-established companies and universities around the world.

🌍 Exciting times ahead! We’re thrilled to be showcasing some of our cutting-edge work at the upcoming Norsk Geoteknisk Forening seminar, where our own Regula Frauenfelder will be presenting a detailed analysis of one of our fascinating projects. Her talk will highlight the unique potential of #InSAR technology and its applications—something we’re truly passionate about at NGI. 🌱 "It’s a great opportunity for us to demonstrate the impact of our innovative solutions, and we’ll be there in full force with experts like Mats and Morten. Don’t forget to visit our booth to learn more about Inio and other groundbreaking services we offer at NGI", says Dyre Dammann.
I just read through Regula's posts for the upcoming seminar at NORSK GEOTEKNISK FORENING - and the slides look great! Wish I could be there and listen to it myself. I particularly like how we can showcase such detailed analysis of some of the interesting cases we are involved. We really need to give more talks like this to demonstrate the many potentials of #InSAR. I particularly like the quite unique and particular focus you will share through this talk Regula! Great that many from NGI - Norwegian Geotechnical Institute will be present including Mats and Morten. For anyone else, make sure you visit our booth where we share more info about Inio and the other exciting services offered by #NGI!

Reflecting on the autumn highlights: The ZeroPM prioritization workshop in Dessau, Germany, and our amazing colleagues who made it a success! 👏 Special thanks to Raoul W., Sivani B., and Hans Peter Arp for their brilliant presentations on chemical regulation and data science in prioritizing substances. 🌍 A big thanks to Umweltbundesamt - German Environment Agency for hosting and organizing this impactful event.
On a little vacation, I have some time to reflect back on the autumn so far. A highlight was the ZeroPM prioritarization workshop in Dessau, Germany. I was thoroughly impressed by the many presentations and discussions about chemical mobility and persistence, and how data should be used to prioritize the groups of chemicals we should focus on. Presentations by my collegues from NGI - Norwegian Geotechnical Institute made me a very proud NGIer. Raoul W. gave a brilliant talk about «How many substances are regulated worldwide?», a very useful insight into the Global Chemical Inventory. Sivani B. summarized her time as post.doc at NGI, using «Data science for prioritizing persistant and mobile substances» - a great presentation showing how statistical analysis and programming are powerful tools for grouping chemicals. Hans Peter Arp brought the first day of the workshop together, in his wonderful talk «Prioritizing of PMT/vPvM substance groups». Many more presentations brought me so many perspectives and learning points to bring back to every day working life! Thanks also to Gunn Ralle and Kirsten Haaland for the help starting up the workshop smoothly. Thanks to Umweltbundesamt - German Environment Agency for hosting in their cool conference center in Dessau, and to UBA, TZW: DVGW-Technologiezentrum Wasser and my collegues at NGI for organizing this fruitful workshop!

Ice sheets have repeatedly covered the Barents Sea and North Sea shelves in the last 500,000 years. Researchers from NGI, Volcanic Basin Energy Research (VBER), the UiT Norges arktiske universitet, and TGS found new evidence that the Norwegian-Barents Sea shelf was completely glaciated as early as 2.4 million years (Ma) ago. NGI's Benjamin Bellwald and his co-authors also showed evidence that glacial meltwater was discharged in huge quantities into the deep sea until the mid-Pleistocene transition (1.2-0.7 Ma). “NGI's offshore energy projects are on the glaciated shelves along the European margin. Studying and understanding the Quaternary subsurface is extremely significant in those complex glacial settings. NGI is at the forefront of combining geological data with geophysical and geotechnical datasets, successfully producing data-driven ground models,” says Bellwald.
