ION’s DigiSTREAMER system will enable contractors to acquire marine seismic data in a cost-effective, environmentally friendly manner. The solid gel design allows for reduction of noise and risk while continuously recording broad bandwidth data in a wider weather window for high productivity, safety, and data quality, the company said.
Last year, ION outfitted BGP’s 2D Challenger vessel with a number of systems from its portfolio of Intelligent Acquisition [IA] marine seismic acquisition technologies.
Dave Moffat, senior vice president of Marine Imaging Systems at ION, said: “I am delighted that BGP has selected DigiSTREAMER for their latest seismic vessel. ION is dedicated to minimizing the impact and footprint of our clients’ seismic operations around the world by providing breakthrough technologies such as DigiSTREAMER.”
ION said that it plans to deliver the system by the end of 2010.
