EMerald Geomodelling is a spin-off from the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI). Though we are a young company founded in 2019, our business is built on a decade of research and development at NGI. We are creating a tool that revolutionises the way we build roads, railways, tunnels, and other types of infrastructure towards more sustainable use of resources.

With the help of machine learning, we translate complex geological data into straightforward model products for engineers and planners. By offering geological insights earlier and faster than what boreholes alone can provide, we help our customers to plan more efficient drilling campaigns and to make better design choices within their large construction projects. 

Why do we do this? Worldwide, building infrastructure costs billions of dollars. Too often, actual costs go way over budget. These extra billions spent are a massive burden on society. Our mission is to lessen that burden. By helping our clients build roads, railways, and tunnels with fewer costly interventions, we help free up funds for other worthy social and environmental goals. 

We are seeking new talent to join our agile and young start-up on the verge of larger growth. We may be small, but we already work with big clients like Bane Nor and Nye Veier and have started on our international adventure.
