Georgia

The Geophysical Institute of Israel has been working in Georgia since 1997 on numerous projects. 

Our clients include CanArgo-Georgia and Georgian Britain Oil Company (GBOC), JKX UK, National Oil Co. Switzerland, Strait Oil and Gas (SOG) and Range Resources Ltd. A total of 1,275 line kilometers of 2D seismic have been acquired by GII in Georgia using vibroseis, dynamite explosive and mixed sources.

Our experience with the local people and contractors in different regions of central Georgia (Sachkhere, Chiatura, Tkibuli, Zstafoni, Kutaisi) has been exemplary and without incident. 

In the 2012 survey, for example, over 3000 drill holes were used for the explosive sources, many of them in rough terrain

In addition to the seismic acquisition, GII was awarded the Seismic Processing as well as accompanying Magnetic and Gravity surveys. This data added greatly to the interpretation of the subsurface structure. 

We have had the opportunity to work in all weather conditions in Georgia, including difficult snow, rain and fog. Despite difficult conditions, no severe injuries (Lost Time Injuries LTI) ocurred.
