Based on GeoSI’s regulations, the following quality policy has been constituted for the company:

 GeoSI will be the preferred provider of services within its professional range.

 Recovery of seabed samples in the field will be performed with a technical and professional skill that ensures complete trust in that the collected samples are well suited for characterization of geochemical, geological and geotechnical properties.

 In practice, the formulated quality policy means that the missions are carried out and in a way that measures up to the customer’s requirements.

 The mission report will provide a complete and accurate description of the task and its results.

 The commissioner can safely trust that the reported field data contain no errors caused by transmission of information between two parts of the process.

 The commissioner can trust that data, opinions, advice and guidelines provided by GeoSI are freely expressed without influences from outside parties, and also anchored in current scientific knowledge and the highest ethical norms of the business.

The purpose of GeoSI’s quality system is to prevent errors; reveal deviations at the earliest possible stage, correct errors as quickly as possible and perform preventive measures. Hence, this quality system is our governing force and is consequently integrated into all our routines and procedures.

This means that all GeoSI’s activities need to comply with the European standard for quality assurance of field sample recovery.
