Akvaplan-niva offers sampling, processing, identification and reporting of marine sediment samples, as well as biological examination of littoral and sublittoral hard bottom flora and fauna.

In relation to our baseline surveys and monitoring programs, our benthic laboratory offers accredited (EN ISO-IEC 17025) services including processing, taxonomic identification, interpretation and reporting of benthic faunal samples from both offshore (petroleum operations) and coastal areas (e.g. aquaculture, harbor basins, emission recipients).
