Real-Time Wireless Seismic Acquisition
In October 2012, Bay acquired the Wireless Seismic RT System 2 seismic acquisition system for the purpose of increasing field operation efficiency for 3-D seismic acquisition. The Wireless Seismic system is a cable-free acquisition system with real-time data monitoring and recording.
Unlike “cable-less” systems, the Wireless Seismic system is a real-time data acquisition system with continuous QC and real-time noise monitor. Real-time data acquisition means no “shooting blind”, no data harvesting/physical data collection and no loss of data due to theft of box. Essentially it is identical to a distributive cable system but without the limitations of the cables themselves.
Bay President Lee Kurtzweil stated “Bay selected the RT System 2 based upon its reduced seismic footprint and for its real-time seismic data return capabilities. Another key factor in Bay’s decision to move forward with the RT System 2 is that it can perform real-time acquisition parameter selection and noise monitoring, which are critical capabilities in meeting our QA/QC needs.” The Wireless System is a significant upgrade to Bay’s seismic acquisition capabilities and sets it apart from its peers.
In January 2013, Bay doubled the number of Wireless Seismic acquisition channels for acquiring 3-D seismic grids. Since then, Bay has acquired 3-D grids with its Wireless Seismic system enhancing field operations and efficiency while maintaining a superior product for its clients.
