SAExploration Holdings has completed its first major deep water ocean-bottom marine seismic project.

The project, located in Southeast Asia, utilized a remotely operated vehicle deployment method at water depths reaching 1,100 meters, and was completed over a week ahead of schedule, the company said.

Brian Beatty, President and CEO of SAE, commented, “We are very pleased with our performance on the largest and most complex ocean-bottom marine seismic project we’ve shot to-date. Our project management experience with coordinating complex programs and our technological expertise with ocean-bottom nodal recording systems resulted in the effective and proficient use of resources. We believe the successful completion of this project sufficiently illustrates our ability to reduce our customers’ program costs and overall risk profile on shallow and deep water ocean-bottom marine seismic projects. We remain excited about the opportunities presented to SAE in this new market.”
