Technology

Sercel has launched its first distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) seismic solution: SigmaWave

Designed in partnership with Fotech Solutions, SigmaWave is the first integrated distributed acoustic solution designed exclusively for borehole seismic applications.

It is a new and integral part of Sercel’s existing downhole seismic equipment portfolio and allows continuous, real-time, seismic measurements via fibre optic cable.

Pascal Rouiller, Sercel CEO, said, “Our launch of the SigmaWave integrated DAS solution offers the borehole industry a complete seismic acquisition system that is robust and provides accurate data in a ready-to-use format, for a wide range of applications and at an accessible cost.”

“It will enable our clients to improve the description of their reservoirs to enhance recovery,” he added.

Sercel designs and manufactures seismic equipment and reservoir monitoring instruments. Sercel provides oil field service companies and geophysical contractors with the widest range of leading edge technologies for exploration in land, marine, ocean bottom, transition zone and reservoir environments. Employing more than 1,500 people worldwide, Sercel’s main sales offices are located in Houston (USA) and Nantes (France).
