Vibrator Auto-Guidance

Vibrator Auto-Guidance

Optimize vibroseis operations

Auto-Guidance is a solution optimizing the vibrator move-up time between two VPs. 

Installed in the driver’s cab and connected to the Nomad Central Command Unit, Auto-Guidance is able to take over control of the vehicle speed and baseplate commands.  

Using the vehicle’s real time GPS position and that of the next “target” VP, Auto-Guidance computes and implements the most efficient deceleration profile towards the target and anticipates the baseplate down command.

  • UP TO 10% INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY
    • Optimizing the travel time between two VPs
    • Reducing the baseplate dead time
  • BETTER DATA QUALITY
    • Typically within 1 m of the surveyed position
  • IMPROVED HSE
    • Reduced driver fatigue
    • More time to focus on the environment
