Accelerate petroleum exploration
A seep sampling campaign can mature a basin from a frontier “unknown” area to an established
petroleum system in 1 year at a low cost; whereas conventional exploration with only
seismic and wells generally take 10+ years and 100 times the cost.
Accurate seep detection is key
You can’t sample a seep if you don’t know exactly where it is.
Target seeps relevant to the petroleum system
Seafloor seeps can include brine seeps, biogenic gas seeps, and volcanic seeps. Our expertise lets us focus on the ones that matter most.
Getting the right data
Adjust the sampling strategy to match style, meet data requirements, balance competitive costs, and consider exploration impact.

How Seep Hunting Provides Direct Evidence of Charge and Reduces Dry Holes
This paper presents an integrated seep and seismic workflow that combines multibeam bathymetry, water column imaging, targeted coring, and geochemical fingerprinting with structural and stratigraphic interpretation to directly confirm charge, migration pathways, and trap effectiveness.
