SAN DIEGO, CA, October 28, 2010
Energy Digital spoke with Geokinetics' Regional Manager of the Australasia region, Greg Dunlop, to gain insight into this American-based geophysical service company, with subsidiary companies located throughout 15 countries around the world.Geokinetics Australasia was established in Australia in 2003. Dunlop describes the company's focus: "Up until fairly recently, the vast majority of our work in this part of the world, through the Australian entity, was transition zone and ocean bottom cable, OBC, acquisition. We have just recently, within the last six to nine months, made a conscious decision to move back into the land market here in Australia."
The company aims at adding to the local market by addressing some of the historical challenges that the region has seen of acquiring seismic data. "We have the ability to supply the equipment, technology and more importantly the personnel," says Dunlop. In one basin alone, the company was able to mobilize a crew of 6,000 channels, in addition to ten heavy vibrating units, a large remote camp accommodation and a new vehicle fleet. "Since we are a larger company, we have been able to address geophysical issues of that basin that hadn't been resolved because there wasn't the means to do so," says Dunlop.
