Services

ION has been supplying innovative, advanced technology products to the land geophysical industry for decades. More recently, ION has begun to offer services to both oil & gas companies and seismic acquisition contractors that enable them to more effectively apply appropriate technologies to the specific acquisition and imaging challenges they face.  

The ION family of companies specializes in developing services that help our customers obtain step-change improvements in image quality and productivity, including:

• Survey design - by acquiring and integrating the technologies of Green Mountain Geophysics (GMG), Concept Systems and GX Technology (GXT), ION has developed a unique and comprehensive suite of software-centric products and services that ensure optimal target illumination, while minimizing data acquisition and processing costs.
• Data processing – GXT’s experience in solving complex imaging challenges has made it a recognized leader in advanced depth imaging, high resolution velocity analysis, noise removal and multiple attenuation.  The addition of AXIS Geophysics has added additional capabilities in full-wave (multicomponent) imaging and azimuthal velocity modeling.  With processing centers around the world, GXT has the expertise and local knowledge to solve the most complex imaging challenges our customers might encounter.
• Project management - the Integrated Seismic Solutions (ISS) team at GX Technology provides end-to-end project management for all phases of a seismic program.  The full-scope ISS offering includes customized survey design, technology consulting, advanced data processing, and final image rendering.  In every ISS program, whether proprietary or multi-client, ISS experts oversee the entire project, including selecting and managing experienced seismic acquisition contractors, to ensure the highest quality images result.
• Training - ION offers a full range of courses that cover all aspects of land seismic systems technology from maintenance and operation to software installation, analysis and troubleshooting.
