Seismic @ Fugro Instruments

 

 

Geometrics are a leading supplier of high quality seismographs and seismic accessories, for both land and marine survey applications.


 

Systems Include:

12 or 24 channel system ideally suited to shallow refraction/reflection engineering surveys

Ideal portable seismograph for reflection, refraction, marine, VSP and tomography surveys.

All purpose marine seismic recording system


SmartSeis Seismograph
 

The SmartSeis.  S12/24 seismograph systems offer the latest in seismic acquisition technology, utilising 20-bit A/D processes with Instantaneous Floating Point (IFP) amplifiers and user selectable sampling rates from 31 to 500 µsecs.

Features & Advantages

  • Built-in refraction analysis QC software for first-break picking
  • Produces a depth section in the field in minutes
  • Light weight (12 kg), very portable
  • Option for either 12 or 24 channels

Applications

  • Depth-to-bedrock
  • Rippability studies
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Mineral development

  • Construction
  • Hydrology
  • Shallow oil & gas
  • Hazardous waste mitigation


StrataView Seismograph
 

The StrataView R & RX Series.  seismographs offer the most advanced data acquisition technology using 24-bit A/D processes with IFP for the R Series, and TRUE 24-bit sigma-delta technology for the RX Series seismographs

Applications

Both the R and RX Series are ideally suited to:
  • Reflection Surveys
  • Marine Surveys
  • VSP Surveys
  • Refraction Surveys
  • Land Surveys
  • Tomography Surveys

 
The R Series is best suited to surveys requiring maximum resolution. ie. shallow refraction/reflection, and engineering work, whereas the RX Series are used for deeper exploration surveys usually comprising weaker seismic signals at depth, hence requiring maximum dynamic range.
 

FEAUTRES OF THE R AND RX SERIES SEIMOGRAPHS

R Series

  • For surveys requiring high resolution in time
  • User selectable sample rates : 32 µsecs to 2 msec
  • Very high bandwidth : 14kHz at 32 µsec sampling
  • Option for either 12 or 24 channels

RX Series

  • TRUE 24-Bit, fixed gain, sigma-delat A/D converters
  • Extremely high dynmaic range
  • Sophisticated Line Testing
  • High speed correlator


In addition to the SmartSeis and StrataView Seismographs there are the following Marine Seismic Systems
