Satellite Laboratories | Cairo, Egypt | Perth, Australia

Isotech’s satellite laboratory in Rio de Janeiro opened in April 2009, bringing our expertise in isotopic analysis to South America.

Located at Weatherford Laboratòrios-Brasil, the satellite laboratory provides Isotech quality data for clients throughout South America without the cost and delays resulting from the shipment of samples to our headquarters in Champaign, Illinois, USA.

The satellite laboratory is remotely monitored and controlled via the Internet. Instruments in Rio de Janeiro are calibrated daily and outputs are transmitted directly to our Champaign lab for analyses where the data review and calibration is carried out by the same scientists who have been regularly performing this function for many years. Findings are then reported back to clients, usually within days, rather than weeks.

The satellite lab provides compositional analysis, plus continuous-flow carbon isotope analysis of CO₂ and C₁ to C₅ hydrocarbons, and hydrogen isotope analysis of C₁—all with the same quality generated in our Champaign facility. IPEX is also a distributor of Isotech-engineered sampling products, including IsoTubes^®, IsoJars^® and IsoPaks™ that were invented specifically for the energy industry.
