Dependable Seabed Recording. Practical Offshore Performance.

Offshore acquisition demands equipment you can trust below the surface and manage efficiently on deck. Geospace Technologies designs and manufactures ocean-bottom seismic recording systems that help marine energy exploration contractors capture the measurements their customers need.

From shallow-water surveys to extended deepwater deployments, our technology connects sensing expertise with the practical demands of offshore operations. Our engineers, manufacturing professionals, testing specialists, and field service teams stand behind the equipment throughout your project.

Built Around Your Survey Requirements

Water depth, recording duration, sensor requirements, and deployment methods all influence equipment selection. Geospace’s marine portfolio gives acquisition teams options for different survey environments and operating plans.

Explore Mariner, Mariner Deep, and our OBX systems to compare capabilities and identify equipment suited to your application. Our team can help you evaluate the options alongside your schedule, handling requirements, and existing operations for marine energy exploration.

SUBSURFACE VISIBILITY

See What Others Can’t

Capture seismic measurements from the seabed to support a clearer understanding of the subsurface. Geospace ocean-bottom nodes combine geophones and hydrophones to record ground motion and pressure signals for customer processing and interpretation.

Our expertise extends from sensor design to the complete recording system. Mariner Deep, for example, incorporates Geospace-designed and manufactured sensor components, connecting the measurement technology directly to the engineering behind the node.

INFORMED CONCLUSIONS

Bring Insight into Action

Useful interpretation begins with dependable acquisition. Autonomous recording, timing, and equipment testing capabilities help survey teams collect the data required for their processing workflows.

Geospace supplies the recording technology and technical support behind those measurements. Your team and processing partners use the resulting data to develop subsurface images, evaluate reservoirs, and inform project decisions.

ECONOMIC + OPERATIONAL VALUE

Do More with Less

Offshore efficiency depends on what happens on deck as well as below the surface. Equipment profile, handling, charging, data download, and recording endurance all affect how a node system fits your operation.

Mariner combines a slim-profile design with wireless charging and data download. Mariner Deep supports extended recording deployments. Our team helps you evaluate these capabilities against your survey plan, so equipment selection accounts for both acquisition requirements and operational demands.

200 Day Operation

This specialized deep water node is designed for extended-duration seabed ocean bottom seismic data acquisition. Nodes can be deployed in depths exceeding 3,048 meters with continuous recording for up to 200 days.

Inductive Download & Charging

Mariner is designed for extended-duration seabed ocean bottom seismic data acquisition. Nodes are ideally deployed at shallow depths down to 750 meters with continuous recording for up to 70 days.

Geospace marine field service

Support That Goes into the Field with You

Marine energy exploration acquisition brings together specialized equipment, people, and logistics. Geospace’s field service teams work alongside customers to help prepare systems, address operating challenges, and support successful acquisition.

Behind them is the company that designs, builds, and tests the equipment. Our technical and business teams coordinate with you on equipment requirements, availability, commercial arrangements, and delivery planning.
