QUICK INTRODUCTION

Rock Mechanics and Geomechanics

At Premier Corex, our mission to illuminate the subsurface is always guided by one goal: creating value for our clients.

Rock Mechanics is the study of rock as an engineered material, with a wide range of practical applications. These include:

  • Ensuring the stability of underground openings for civil and mining projects

  • Maintaining wellbore integrity during hydrocarbon extraction, CO₂ or brine injection

  • Containment of hydraulic fractures within expected geological barriers

  • Monitoring formation deformation due to pore pressure changes during production or injection

  • Evaluating stress changes driven by thermal flux, such as in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS)


With decades of expertise and a world class laboratory, Premier Corex delivers trusted Rock Mechanics testing and analysis—standalone or integrated—helping you build accurate, predictive geomechanical models.

Let us deliver the data and insights you need to solve your subsurface engineering challenges.
