About Us

MAPPEM Geophysics (established in 2015) is an innovative French company specialising in marine electromagnetics. We develop state-of-the-art electromagnetic instruments and methods and conduct electromagnetic site investigations and surveys for nearshore and offshore projects. We pride ourselves on providing our clients with new insight into the characteristics of the marine subsurface, the location of potential buried hazards and objects, and the measurement of ambient electromagnetic fields in the marine environment.


From our workshop near the rugged coast of Brittany, France, our dedicated team is always on deck to help deliver greater knowledge about your marine subsurface or environmental challenge.

SERVICES

Our highly sensitive marine electromagnetic systems can be used for several challenges:

SECTORS

Our electromagnetic systems and services are used in many sectors, such as:

OUR VISION

At MAPPEM Geophysics, our vision is to be the pioneering force in marine electromagnetics, revolutionising geophysical imaging, object detection, and environmental assessment. Our independent spirit fuels innovation, driving us to develop state-of-the-art systems that provide accurate and reliable electromagnetic and resistivity data to redefine what’s possible in marine site investigations, empowering clients to make informed decisions.


With a passion for the sea, we tailor solutions not only for efficiency but also with safety in mind, prioritising the well-being of our team, clients, and the marine environment. We believe in collaboration as a force multiplier. Whether it’s partnering with other companies, research institutions, government agencies, or fellow innovators worldwide, we’re committed to collective progress.

OUR TECHNOLOGIES

Mappem GeoPhysics LeSystemeMappem

MAPPEM

The original MAPPEM system is towed just above the seabed and is designed for geophysical resistivity imaging of the subsurface and buried object detection.

Mappem GeoPhysics LeSystemeMappem3D

MAPPEM-3D

The MAPPEM-3D system is designed to detect and locate buried objects with precision over a swath of 5 m. This system is particularly well suited to non-ferrous objects (e.g., LMB mines).

Mappem GeoPhysics LeSystemeMappemS

MAPPEM-S

The MAPPEM-S system is an adaption of the original MAPPEM system that has been designed for very shallow waters (0-10 m water depths).

Mappem GeoPhysics LeSystemePassem

PASSEM

The PASSEM system is a towed tool dedicated to the measurement of the ambient electromagnetic fields in the water column.

Mappem Geophysics Services measurement of ambient electromagnetic fields

STATEM

The STATEM system comprises autonomous marine magnetotelluric measuring stations. They are used for the measurement of ambient electromagnetic fields and mapping geothermal plays.
