HOUSTON, March 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Geokinetics
Inc., is pleased to announce the successful deployment of its
AquaVib™ Marine Vibrator, in full production mode, on a
Geokinetics ocean bottom crew working in the Gulf of Mexico. The AquaVib™ Marine Vibrator
has been long awaited as an alternative to existing compressed air
sources with its much lower sound amplitudes.
The recently acquired AquaVib™ seismic data was
recorded into a multi-component ocean bottom system. Geokinetics is
processing the data in their Houston Processing and Reservoir
Geosciences Data Center for comparison to a conventional air source
survey shot in the same location.
David J Crowley, President & CEO commented, "Geokinetics is
pleased to launch the AquaVib™ and introduce the next generation of
Marine Seismic Acquisition technology. This exemplifies
Geokinetics' commitment to providing the tools our clients need in
order to explore for and develop hydrocarbons in challenging
environments."

land and shallow water geophysical service companies offering a
broad range of specialized geophysical solutions to the oil and
