Sercel Launches New Version of 508XT Seismic Acquisition System

Sercel has launched a transition zone version of its 508XT seismic acquisition system, CGG informed.

Seismic crews will now be able to deploy the 508XT solution in marsh zones and water depths of up to 25 meters.

Designed with reinforced hardware to withstand the complex challenges of operating in shallow water environments, the new 508XT transition zone system also benefits from Sercel’s fault-tolerant X-Tech cross-technology architecture, featuring local storage and automatic rerouting to maximize survey productivity.

Pascal Rouiller, Sercel CEO, said: “By adapting our 508XT technology for transition zone environments, Sercel has made another step forward in our strategy to meet customer needs for a single seismic acquisition system that can operate in any terrain and any configuration. The 508XT is undoubtedly the most efficient and powerful seismic acquisition technology available today that can offer crews the guarantee of recording the highest-quality seismic data, regardless of terrain conditions.”
