Dive into the fascinating world of lunar geotechnical engineering with this 8-minute video from the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI).
This August, NGI will once again participate in Arendalsuka, Norway’s largest political gathering. It is a place where research, politics, business, and civil society come together.
Artificial intelligence is changing how we build tunnels. We can now predict hazardous rock conditions before we encounter them, leading to safer tunnels, lower costs, reduced environmental impact, and better decision-making underground.
Resilient Transport System (ResiTrans) is a new research centre aiming to strengthen the resilience of Norway’s transport system. The project has received funding from the Research Council of Norway and is led by NGI in collaboration with leading research institutions and key public sector stakeholders.
The Research Council of Norway has selected the institutions that will be designated as national research centres for artificial intelligence (AI). One of these centres is TRUST. The core of the centre will be located in Oslo Science City, including NGI.
NGI will be strongly represented at the 5th International Symposium on Frontiers in Offshore Geotechnics (ISFOG), taking place in Nantes, France this year.
Here you’ll find highlights and a video recording from the I Hardt Vær breakfast seminar “Practical Implementation of Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation”, held on 22 May 2025.
We have received the sad news that Toralv Berre passed away last week at the age of 86. Toralv was a prominent geotechnical engineer with a career spanning several decades. He was a major contributor to the development of NGI's soil and rock laboratories.
Even though we sort our trash and recycle materials, too much waste remains in landfills. Many landfills are from before we started sorting and recycling our waste. Both old and new landfills produce contaminated leachate.
