Towed Streamer

Ninety percent of all offshore hydrocarbons are located using seismic data acquired with towed streamer technology. ION products are utilized in virtually every offshore data acquisition project.

LEADING BRANDS

• DigiCOURSE - provides integrated, high performance streamer positioning and control solutions with unmatched service, quality, and reliability. For over 30 years, our products have been used by every major seismic contractor and oil & gas company. The scope of DigiCOURSE’s product line now includes source and streamer systems.
  
• Concept Systems - designs integrated navigation, data management and quality control systems that set the industry standard by offering radical improvements in operational efficiency and profitability.

Leading Products

• Data acquisition systems - The MSX streamer and shipboard recording technology is a field-proven, 24-bit integrated data acquisition platform. The recent introduction of the DigiSTREAMER solid cable enables our customers to acquire low noise, cost-effective streamer data in an environmentally-friendly manner.
  
• Streamer positioning and steering systems - since accurate streamer positioning is critical to successful 3D and 4D projects, ION’s DigiRANGE II has been field-proven in its ability to deliver reliable streamer positioning. DigiRANGE II is a key building block in ION’s program to deliver a highly accurate streamer steering and control solution using DigiFIN.
  
• High repeatability energy sources - For maximum 3D and 4D imaging performance, ION provides source systems that accommodate all marine requirements.  The DigiSHOT source controller ensures that energy with highly repeatable source signatures can be consistently and cost effectively delivered into the subsurface.
  
• Data integration software - Concept Systems’ industry leading software products for navigation, quality control and data management are designed to integrate data flows from multiple marine hardware systems, ensuring improved seismic images are acquired more efficiently and with reduced HSE risk on every survey.
  

Leading Applications

• Enhanced resolution 2D and 3D imaging - ION is uniquely able to offer a complete, cost effective instrumentation solution.
• 4D seismic solutions - ION offers a purpose-built suite of streamer acquisition technology for time-lapse imaging.  Known as Digi4D, this technology suite is designed to ensure maximum repeatability across successive seismic surveys.  Digi4D includes:
  • DigiSHOT - to deliver highly repeatable source signatures into the subsurface
  • DigiRANGE II and DigiFIN - for accurate streamer positioning and control
  • DigiSTREAMER - for low noise data acquisition

The Digi4D solution enables oil & gas companies to acquire data and produce images with sufficient fidelity to track fluid movements in the reservoir.
