Our History

Brone Survey was incorporated in the year 2000 by ex-Racal Survey UK Limited (Thales Geosolutions) staff. In its early years, Brone primarily operated in Nigeria by providing technical expertise to other local survey companies.

As the years have gone by, Brone has established itself as a singular entity not to be ignored; directly servicing oil and gas companies with operations in Nigeria and neighboring West African countries such as Ghana, Cameroon, Republic of Benin and Liberia. Twenty years after its incorporation, the entity is now a group of companies providing Geophysical, Geotechnical, Marine and Support services with a promising outlook for future growth and development.

In our twenty years of existence, we have developed and sustained an excellent track record, which is our hallmark and pride.

Brone also undertakes the implementation of quality control procedures on behalf of our clients. We act as client representatives on rig positioning and other offshore survey projects so as to ensure that contractor complies with client work specifications. 

This and many more are the reasons why Brone remains the preferred option for many.
