01
Line clearing & access
Cutting and reinstating access through bush, farmland and forest with the smallest footprint the geometry allows.
Home / Technology & fleet
Equipment we own. Crews we train.
Since 2011 AGS has acquired seismic vibrators, GPS survey units, drilling rigs and ProMAX data processing systems to support comprehensive field operations.
R/01Sercel 428XL cable systemsCabled · high channel count
Densely sampled recording for large 3D spreads where cable telemetry remains the most economical route to channel count.
R/02ARIES recording systemsDistributed · rugged
Distributed architecture suited to difficult access and long, thin 2D programmes across remote terrain.
R/03Nodal recording systemsCable-free · autonomous
Cable-free nodes for populated areas, farmland, dense forest and anywhere a cable spread would be a permitting or safety problem.
S/01Wholly owned vibroseis fleetSweep-controlled source
Controlled-source energy with repeatable sweeps — essential for 4D repeatability and for working close to infrastructure and communities.
S/02Drilling rigsShot hole · uphole
In-house drilling for explosive source points and for the uphole programme that feeds the near-surface velocity model.
P/01ProMAX processing systemsField & office
The same processing environment in the field camp and the office, so field QC products and the final sequence stay consistent.
P/02RTK GPS survey unitsCentimetric positioning
Real-time kinematic positioning for station layout, topographic control and as-laid reconciliation.
Migrated volume · illustrative model

What the equipment above is for: an imaged subsurface volume, here showing an anticline cut by a normal fault.
Support
The half of a seismic crew nobody photographs.
Camps, line clearing, water, medical cover, vehicle maintenance and permit negotiation decide whether a production target is met as much as the recording system does.
02
Drilling support
Shot hole and uphole drilling with in-house rigs, water supply and consumables managed by the same crew.
03
Transition-zone logistics
Recording barges, cable boats and shore crews for shallow water and transition-zone programmes.
