Petroseismic Conducts Major High-Density Seismic Survey in Latin America with Sercel Technologies and Services
Paris, France | Aug 11, 2026
Sercel is pleased to announce that a comprehensive suite of its seismic acquisition technologies is being deployed by Petroseismic, on behalf of Chilean national energy company ENAP, to acquire a large-scale, high-density land seismic survey in Chile. This project is a notable example of the growing adoption of high-density seismic acquisition across Latin America.
To help ensure a smooth project startup and optimal operational performance, Sercel supported ENAP and Petroseismic with specialized survey services, including a vibrator audit program and its Train & Launch services, providing technical and geophysical expertise, operational guidance and workforce training throughout the mobilization phase. As the project progresses, Sercel will provide further specialized services to optimize survey execution and ensure the highest level of data quality.
The project combines extensive deployment of Sercel's proven land acquisition solutions, including vibrators, vibrator control electronics and wireless land nodal technologies, enabling efficient operations while delivering the high-density data required to image complex geological environments.
Victor Marquez, CEO, Petroseismic, said: "This project represents an important milestone for our operations. The combination of Sercel's advanced acquisition technologies and expert services enabled us to rapidly achieve operational readiness and successfully launch this large-scale, high-density seismic survey in a demanding environment. The close collaboration between our teams, together with the performance and reliability of the Sercel solutions deployed in the field, has been instrumental to the project's success."
Jérôme Denigot, CEO, Sercel, said: "We are proud to support Petroseismic and ENAP in the successful execution of this major seismic survey. This project demonstrates the value of combining advanced land nodal technologies, high-productivity vibroseis solutions and expert in-field services to address the operational challenges of today's large-scale, high-density surveys. It also highlights Sercel's ability to help customers rapidly reach operational readiness and execute complex survey projects efficiently in order to acquire the highest-quality data."
