Sercel Announces Contract for Deployment of the TPS on Gulf of Mexico Survey

19/12/2024

Sercel has announced a contract with a marine geophysical company for the deployment of its Tuned Pulse Source (TPS™), an innovative low-frequency broadband marine seismic source, and the provision of related support services. The geophysical company is deploying the TPS solution to acquire an ultralong-offset ocean-bottom node (OBN) survey in the Gulf of Mexico, which started in November.

  • TPS is Sercel’s response to the industry’s need for an enhanced low-frequency marine seismic source that produces a broader bandwidth and has a reduced environmental impact. This best-in-class solution delivers exceptionally low-frequency content and the highest amplitude signals at frequencies below 3 Hz. These are crucial for building accurate velocity models with the latest elastic full-waveform inversion technology, when targeting complex geologies and deep targets with long offsets.

    Jerome Denigot, CEO, Sercel said: “We are pleased to see our TPS source being used to acquire this high-end OBN survey in the Gulf of Mexico. During its deployment on multiple OBN projects over the last two years, it has clearly demonstrated greater operational efficiency and reduced environmental impact on marine life compared to other low-frequency sources, while delivering the most accurate data for unparalleled seismic imaging quality.”
