Seismology Solutions from Geomatrix

Seismology plays a critical role in understanding subsurface conditions and monitoring seismic activity. At Geomatrix, we provide a comprehensive range of seismographs, seismic sources, and accessories to meet diverse field requirements across three main categories:

Exploration Seismology

Seismic surveying is a highly effective method for investigating rock and subsoil characteristics. It is widely used for locating groundwater, hydrocarbons, and valuable minerals. Geomatrix offers Geodes with configurations of up to 240 channels, suitable for a variety of applications:

  • Depth to Bedrock
  • Site Investigation
  • Geotechnical Property Analysis
  • Groundwater Exploration
  • Hydrocarbon and Coal Exploration

Downhole and Crosshole Seismic Applications

By placing receivers and sometimes sources in boreholes, subsurface elastic properties can be measured with greater accuracy. This approach minimizes the influence of wave propagation through multiple layers, enhancing ground models. Key applications include:

  • Direct Measurement of Shear Wave Velocities (SH and SV)
  • Direct Measurement of P-Wave Velocities
  • Vertical Seismic Profiling
  • Tube Wave Analysis

Seismic Monitoring

Geomatrix is the UK representative for Reftek, part of Trimble, a leader in seismic recording instruments. Reftek solutions are versatile, operating in standalone mode or as part of larger seismic monitoring networks. Applications include:

  • Regional Seismic Studies
  • Aftershock Recording
  • Active Source Crustal Studies
  • Micro-Zonation
  • Site Noise Surveys

Vibration Monitoring

For vibration-specific surveys, we offer the CM2 Vibration Monitor from Magus Electronics, available exclusively for hire.

Our seismology tools are designed to provide reliable, high-quality data for exploration, analysis, and monitoring purposes, tailored to the specific needs of each project.
