Marine sparkers are among most widely used high and ultra-high resolution seismic sources for reflection marine seismic surveys.
Modern sparkers are used for all types of engineering and scientific applications and operate in wide range of water depth - from first meters up to several kilometers, providing detailed, high-resolution images of subsurface.
GEODEVICE designs and produces full range of marine sparkers: starting from lightweight SWS-250 for shallow engineering purposes up to powerfull SWS-2500 for oceanology studies.
All our sparkers support industry standard 2D and 3D acquisition techniques and ensure succesfull long-term in-field operations due to:
