History

Today's Fugro is the product of the 1986 merger of two long-standing competitors with worldwide operations: Fugro, a European-based company founded in 1962; and McClelland Engineers, a US-based company founded in 1947. The combined group provides the unique experience and technology needed to successfully provide geotechnical, hydrogeologic, environmental, and marine survey services.

Fugro Atlantic was formed when a team of engineers and geologists relocated to Virginia to work with the Craney Island Design Partners providing services for the Craney Island Expansion Program.  Fugro Atlantic is a subdivision of Fugro Consultants, Inc.
