High Resolution Echo Sounders and Acoustic Systems for Precision Seafloor Exploration
Welcome to the SyQwest Inc Blog.
IODP utilizes SyQwest's Bathy 2010 3.5 kHz Chirp Profiler to conduct Geo physical survey from the shore of Japan to the Shatsky Rise, with great success! Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 324 had long transits from Yokohama, Japan, to Shatsky Rise; between the five sites; and from Shatsky Rise to Townsville, Australia. In all, transits...
Our congratulations to GeoGlobe LLC on their recent success utilizing our multi-frequency Sub Bottom Profiler (StrataBox 3510) and Bathy Metric (Bathy 1500C) pairing to determine organic hydrocarbon layers over sludge material in Absheron Salt lakes. Here is a note we received from Mr. Fuad Mehraliyev of GeoGlobe LLC: Dear SyQwest Inc. Team,Recently we worked on a...
(Click for full size) The above image was from a survey taken off the North Coast of the San Francisco, CA shore. Merkel & Associates INC successfully conducted an eel grass layer classification survey in shallow water. The parameters for the sub bottom survey were 1 to 12 meters, and the goal was to identify mud...
Shell Offshore collected marine seismic data in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas in support of potential future oil and gas leasing and development. Deep seismic acquisition for SOI was conducted by WesternGeco using the Gilavar, a source vessel that towed an airgun array as well as hydrophone streamers, and the Syqwest StrataBox to record reflected...
The StrataBox-HD now uses FM CHIRP processing! FM CHIRP enhances and improves vertical layer sediment resolution significantly. Same seafloor bottom represented by CHIRP processing, vs. CW signal processing. Quite the image improvement, if we do say so ourselves.Additionally the following significant enhancements in design have been made. 16 Bit Full Spectrum CHIRP signal processing. High bandwidth digital...
