SYSTRA Subterra is a specialized engineering consultancy focused on geotechnical engineering, tunnelling, underground space design, and mining engineering. It delivers services across the full project lifecycle, including site investigation and data interpretation, feasibility studies, basic and detailed engineering, value engineering, support and lining calculations, safety system design, and construction-phase geotechnical monitoring and supervision for tunnels, shafts, caverns, and other underground structures.
Founded in 2008 in Spain as Subterra Ingenieria SL, the company was acquired in 2023 by the French SYSTRA Group and rebranded accordingly. It now operates as part of SYSTRA while retaining its specialist underground expertise. The group comprises functional entities in Spain (headquartered in Madrid), Chile, Colombia, and Peru, with additional project offices and a presence in multiple other countries across Europe, Latin America, and beyond. It has historically worked on projects in 38 countries on four continents.
Core sectors include mining (such as potash and copper projects), transportation infrastructure (metros and road/rail tunnels), civil works, energy, and hydraulics. The firm emphasizes independent technical advice, innovation in complex ground conditions, safety, and cost optimization. With a multidisciplinary team of civil, geotechnical, geological, and mining engineers, it positions itself as a leading underground engineering consultant in the Ibero-American region and a key specialist within the broader SYSTRA organization.
