Flexible Survey Design

Q-Seabed is the only system where individual cable lengths in excess of 30 km can be deployed, and individual vessels have the flexibility to handle multiple cables.

Flexible survey design options like superswath snakes reduce zippering, improve efficiency, and reduce the impact of acquisition footprint on irregularly shaped surveys, while maximizing the fold. The image below shows an example of the increase in fold that the superswath snake delivered while reducing acquisition time by 12 days compared to a standard system.
