LONDON, UK – June 28, 2017 – Exova (now owned by Element Materials Technology), the global testing, calibration and advisory services provider, has been awarded a two year service agreement with Matrix Solutions, a Canadian environmental and engineering consultancy business, to provide soil and water testing for operations in the oil and gas sector.
