PGS ASA is a Norwegian company specialized in the exploration of oil and gas deposits worldwide. The company was founded in 1991 and is headquartered in Oslo. The company's history began in the 1980s when a group of scientists and engineers joined forces to develop new methods for exploring oil deposits. They focused on the concept of seismic, a type of waves generated in the earth to gather information about the underlying layers. This method quickly became popular in the oil industry as it provided an effective way to identify potential oil and gas reservoirs. PGS is now a global leader in the field of seismic surveys. The company operates a fleet of seismic vessels and offers a comprehensive range of services to support customers in the exploration and development of oil and gas deposits. PGS's business model is based on providing seismic data acquisition and processing services to customers in the oil and gas industry. The company uses state-of-the-art technology to collect and process seismic data in real-time. These data are then used to create accurate models of the subsurface and identify potential oil and gas reservoirs. In recent years, PGS has diversified its business to offer flexible solutions that meet its customers' exploratory needs. This includes data-centric approaches that leverage the latest computer cognition models to improve the efficiency and accuracy of data analysis. The company is divided into three main segments: Marine Geophysical Services, Electromagnetic Services, and Imaging & Engineering Services. Under the Marine Geophysical Services segment, PGS operates a fleet of seismic vessels equipped with cutting-edge technology to collect data using airguns and carbon black powder triggers in open waters and bring them back to land. Over time, the company has transitioned to LNG and now has one of the most environmentally friendly fleets in geophysics. PGS offers a wide range of seismic services, including broadband and high-resolution seismic surveys, broadband seismic, explosive drilling, 3D and 4D vibroseismic. Under the Electromagnetic Services segment, PGS conducts surveys based on the propagation of electromagnetic waves through the subsurface. This method is used to discover potential oil and gas deposits in areas where seismic exploration is difficult or impossible. PGS is a leader in conducting electromagnetic surveys at sea. Under the Imaging & Engineering Services segment, PGS offers innovative technical solutions and integrated interpretation services. These services include data acquisition, processing, and interpretation, uncertainty quantification and risk management, as well as geological software. PGS also offers a variety of products to help its customers achieve their exploratory goals. These include seismic data libraries that allow customers to access existing data and save time and money. Additionally, the company provides specialized software solutions that enable customers to visually interpret seismic data and create 3D models of the subsurface. PGS is an innovative company focused on developing new and effective methods for exploring oil and gas reservoirs. The company has diversified its services and products to meet customer requirements and remains a leading provider in the field of seismic surveys. With its fleet of seismic vessels, industry-leading technical solutions, databases, and wide range of products, PGS is well-positioned to help customers worldwide discover and develop the potential resources in the earth.
