What Geoengineering does
Geoengineering MMC is an Azerbaijani private civil engineering company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Baku, specializing in engineering-geology investigations, mining drilling, and offshore works across the Caspian Sea region. The company provides an integrated portfolio of geotechnical services: onshore and offshore site investigations using in-situ testing (SPT, CPT, PLT, DPT), mining exploration drilling, environmental site assessments, hydrogeological and topographical surveys, geophysical surveys (MASW, GPR, electrical resistivity, crosshole), and ISO 17025-accredited laboratory testing of soils, waters, marine waters, and sediments. It operates dedicated offshore geotechnical drilling vessels equipped with Seismic Cone Penetration Testing (Manta CPT system, up to 500 m water depth), Side Scan Sonar, multibeam echo sounders, and SeaSpy magnetometers.
The firm's client base is concentrated in four verticals: oil and gas (SOCAR, BP Exploration Caspian Sea, SOCAR Fugro, SOCAR AQS, Tecnicas Reunidas, Maire Tecnimont), mining (AZERGOLD, AIMC, DEMO Madencilik), construction and infrastructure (Pasha Construction, TODINI, ASTALDI, AKKORD, URBN), and government (Ministry of Emergency Situations, Ministry of Ecology of Azerbaijan, Roads Department of Georgia). Projects have been delivered across Azerbaijan, Georgia, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan, including the Heydar Aliyev Oil Refinery reconstruction, Shurtan Gas Chemical Complex in Uzbekistan, Gadabay Gold Mine, and Caspian Sea offshore sites.
Geoengineering employs 100+ specialists with 10+ years of average experience, holds Azerbaijani government licenses for soil investigation (ISN/L-597/2016) and mining works (IN/L-764/2017), and maintains ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, OHSAS 18001:2007, and ISO 17025 certifications. Revenue is generated primarily through project-based B2B tenders and direct enterprise relationships; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales with public-tender participation, supported by a multilingual website and regional industry-event presence. There are no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, parent company, or institutional investors; the firm appears to be privately held and independently operated.
