Vista Clara Launches Breakthrough Technology for Geotech
Harpoon®, The World's First CPT + Magnetic Resonance Instrument for Geotechnical & Hydrogeological Subsurface Characterization
MUKILTEO, WA, UNITED STATES, October 1, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Vista Clara, the leader in Magnetic Resonance (MR) technology for subsurface characterization, brings to the market Harpoon®, the world's first integration of magnetic resonance measurements into a cone penetrometer (CPT) test tool.
Harpoon® can be operated both offshore and on land to deliver real-time, continuous, high-resolution, in-situ data on both geotechnical and hydrogeological properties of the subsurface with minimal disturbance to the native formation.
Key capabilities of the Harpoon® include:
• Magnetic resonance data: porosity, bound/mobile water, pore size distribution, sediment classification, hydraulic conductivity (K)
• CPTu measurements: tip resistance, sleeve friction, pore pressure, tilt angle
• Real-time results onsite: more accurate site characterization through instantaneous data with no delays or core samples
• Reduced risk and cost for infrastructure and offshore projects
“We created Harpoon to meet growing demand for fast, reliable in-situ geotechnical characterization,” said Dr. David Walsh, President of Vista Clara. “By delivering the most critical parameters onsite, Harpoon helps reduce risk and cost in major infrastructure and offshore projects.”
