San Jose, Calif.-based Geometrics Inc. has introduced the GeoEel, a 24-bit digital seismic streamer. Its wide bandwidth (up to 8KHz) makes it applicable to all seismic surveys. Only 1.5 in. in diameter and configurable with up to 240 channels and multiple streamers, the GeoEel sends data by Ethernet to any industry-standard PC.

It's the first seismic streamer to be filled with a non-toxic, non-flammable silicone oil derivative. This eliminates fire hazards during shipment as well as fines in environmentally sensitive areas due to accidental rips in the streamer skin. A comprehensive suite of software provides real-time gathers, brute stack, GPS integration, trigger timing, gun monitor and other data visualization, quality control and instrument tests.
