Client-side management across the land seismic project lifecycle
ResourceGeo manages land seismic projects from early planning through to field close-out, backed by an Integrated Management System and a seismic-specific Project Management System.
Survey planning & design
Feasibility, survey design and geometry support, constraints assessment, acquisition planning, schedule and budget development. Technical objectives are considered alongside access, regulatory and field constraints before mobilisation.
- Survey design & geometry support
- Feasibility studies
- Indicative scheduling
- Budget development
Regulatory approvals
Approval pathways, regulatory requirements, notifications and operating conditions, coordinated directly with regulators. Conditions are understood and built into the program before mobilisation.
- Approval pathway mapping
- Regulatory requirement identification
- Jurisdictional review
- Regulator coordination
Land access & stakeholder coordination
Landholder access, property conditions, stakeholder requirements and commitments. Property-specific constraints are carried into field planning rather than treated as a separate workstream.
- Landholder engagement
- Access negotiation
- Cultural heritage coordination
- Property-specific constraint tracking
Procurement & contractor readiness
Scope definition, tender and procurement support, contractor review and mobilisation readiness checks. Readiness gaps are identified and closed before field production begins.
- Scope definition
- Tender & procurement support
- Contractor review
- Mobilisation readiness checks
Field management & acquisition oversight
Client-side field supervision, contractor management, acquisition oversight, production monitoring, issue escalation and technical QA/QC. Operational visibility is maintained daily throughout field execution.
- Field supervision & contractor management
- Daily & weekly progress reporting
- Issue escalation
- Technical QA/QC
HSEQ & project controls
HSEQ oversight alongside schedule, cost, risk, production, contractor performance and reporting controls. Variance is tracked continuously, giving early warning while there is still time to act.
- HSEQ oversight
- Risk, issue, decision & change registers
- Contractor performance tracking
- Schedule & cost reporting
Environmental & heritage coordination
Environmental conditions, cultural heritage interfaces, specialist adviser coordination, compliance support and field-condition evidence. ResourceGeo coordinates with qualified environmental, ecological and heritage specialists rather than replacing them.
- Environmental & cultural heritage constraint maps
- Specialist adviser coordination
- Compliance support
- Field-condition evidence
Close-out & reporting
Rehabilitation verification, landholder commitments, regulatory reporting, GIS and project records, and final documentation. Commitments are tracked through to close-out rather than left open once field activities finish.
- Rehabilitation verification
- Landholder close-out records
- Regulatory reporting
- Final close-out report & GIS package
Environmental monitoring & change detection
Repeatable drone-based mapping and spatial analysis supporting baseline condition mapping, corridor and access-track monitoring, disturbance assessment, before-and-after condition comparison, rehabilitation verification and close-out evidence.
Drone and GIS outputs provide spatial evidence and support project compliance processes; specialist environmental or cultural heritage assessment is undertaken by appropriately qualified advisers where required.
What’s included
- Pre-acquisition imagery and condition baselines
- Repeatable corridor mapping for seismic lines and access tracks
- Progress monitoring during field operations
- Post-acquisition condition and rehabilitation verification
- Before-and-after change detection and disturbance assessment
- Vegetation, erosion, and land disturbance mapping
- GIS analysis and spatial data management
- Environmental monitoring and change-detection reports
- Auditable records for regulators and landholders
Typical applications
- Land seismic programs
