The GeoVerra team was not only able to deliver their services with the highest standard, but they went above and beyond to ensure successful project delivery. Throughout the challenging pipeline construction phase, GeoVerra collaborated with the project team and was able to implement innovative solutions in a timely manner which played an important role in keeping the project moving.

“In our larger Alberta based FTTH program, we used 3 different survey companies and GeoVerra stood out as the best performing vendor. They had the best speed and quality of deliverables, which were delivered reliably on time without any unexpected additions. If the program expands further in the future we will definitely call GeoVerra first!”

TC Energy, Coastal GasLink

TC Energy is constructing the Coastal GasLink pipeline to safely deliver natural gas across northern British Columbia to the LNG Canada facility in Kitimat. When complete, the Coastal GasLink pipeline will enable liquefied natural gas (LNG) to be shipped to global markets to replace coal-fired electricity. Starting in July, 2020, GeoVerra has been providing construction and legal survey services, and will continue to support the project, including cleanup, through the summer of 2023.
