Who we are

Clarity where the ground is uncertain.

Dolomite creates clarity, supports informed decision-making, and delivers measurable commercial value throughout the project lifecycle.

Our approach is centred around project outcomes. We remain engaged with our clients, providing technical leadership, responsive support, and proportionate risk mitigation aligned with the realities of project delivery. Our expertise extends across the land, coastal and marine environments in the infrastructure, utilities, defence, and renewable energy sectors, supporting projects from early feasibility through to construction and operational delivery.

  • Risk understood and quantified, not simply identified
  • Proportionate mitigation matched to real project exposure
  • Technical authority across geoscience and munitions risk
Our approach

How uncertainty becomes a decision.

Ground risk is rarely removed — it is understood, quantified and managed down to a level a project can carry. Our process is designed to reach that point with evidence behind every step.

01

Desk Study

Historical records, wartime activity, prior investigations and site history assembled into a single evidence base.

02

Risk Assessment

Likelihood and consequence quantified for the specific works proposed — not a generic hazard rating.

03

Survey & Data

Geophysical survey specified, scoped and quality-assured so the data can answer the question asked of it.

04

Interpretation

Targets discriminated and interpreted, separating genuine items of concern from benign anomalies.

05

Mitigation & Support

A proportionate mitigation strategy, then continued technical support through construction and operation.

Our difference

Why clients keep us close to the project.

01

Technical Authority

We combine deep expertise across geoscience, munitions and explosives risk management, and emerging technologies with practical industry experience to deliver technically robust and commercially relevant solutions.

02

Risk Intelligence

Our focus is not simply identifying risk, but understanding it. Through detailed assessment, discrimination, interpretation and continuous monitoring, we help clients understand real project exposure.

03

Pragmatic Delivery

Every recommendation is developed with project outcomes in mind. We balance safety, compliance, programme, commercial realities and operational constraints to create solutions that work in practice.

04

Innovation & Development

As a progressive technical business, we invest in research, development and continuous improvement to ensure our methodologies remain at the forefront of industry best practice.

05

Accountability

We take ownership of our advice and our role within projects, delivering clear communication, transparent decision-making and dependable technical support.

06

Corporate Strength, Personal Service

We combine the governance, compliance, security and professionalism expected of a leading consultancy with the responsiveness, accessibility and personal relationships that clients value.

Where we work

A global discipline, wherever the project sits.

Ground risk does not respect borders, and neither does the industry it serves. We mobilise internationally, working to the guidance and regulatory expectations that apply in each region.

North Sea Japan Taiwan South Korea Australia
Home waters

United Kingdom & North Sea

Offshore wind, interconnectors and coastal infrastructure across one of the most heavily contested former theatres in the world.

Established

Northern Europe

Supporting developers and contractors across European waters and land-based infrastructure programmes.

Expanding

Asia-Pacific

A fast-growing offshore renewables market across Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and Australia, each with its own regulatory landscape.

On request

Global mobilisation

Where a project needs specialist ground risk expertise on site, we deploy to it — with the governance and compliance a client of that scale expects.
