Client-side management
What ResourceGeo manages
ResourceGeo manages land seismic projects from early planning through to field close-out, giving clients visibility and control over the risks that determine whether a program stays on schedule and on budget.
Survey planning & design
Feasibility, survey design, constraints assessment, acquisition planning, schedule and budget development ahead of mobilisation.
Regulatory approvals
Approval pathways, notifications, operating conditions and regulator coordination, built into the plan before mobilisation.
Land access & stakeholder coordination
Landholder access, property conditions, stakeholder commitments and access constraints incorporated directly into field planning.
Procurement & contractor readiness
Scope definition, tender support, contractor review and mobilisation readiness checks before field production begins.
Field management & acquisition oversight
Client-side field supervision, contractor management, acquisition oversight, production monitoring and technical QA/QC during field execution.
HSEQ & project controls
HSEQ, schedule, cost, risk, production and contractor performance tracked through project reporting and controls.
Environmental & heritage coordination
Environmental conditions, heritage interfaces, specialist adviser coordination and field-condition evidence incorporated into execution planning.
Close-out & reporting
Rehabilitation verification, commitments, regulatory reporting, GIS records and final project documentation tracked through close-out.

Project control
Project control built for land seismic
ResourceGeo applies seismic-specific project controls to maintain visibility of schedule, cost, risk, HSEQ, production, technical quality and contractor performance.
Schedule
Programme status, dependencies and variance.
Cost
Budget visibility, changes and cost exposure.
Risk
Issues, controls and action status.
HSEQ
Requirements, observations and contractor performance.
Production
Planned versus actual field progress.
Technical
Acquisition parameters, QA/QC and technical issues.
