Swathe Services Expands Its Rental Pool with GeoAcoustics Survey Systems

Swathe Services have recently expanded their equipment rental pool capability with a suite of GeoAcoustics products.

James Williams, Managing Director at Swathe Services said “Traditionally we have supported our customers’ survey requirements with pure Hydrographic equipment but with the acquisition of the GeoAcoustics suite of survey systems we can now offer a wider Geophysical support capability. There are also plans underway to integrate these systems into both the ‘Inception’ and ‘Accession’ class Unmanned Survey Vessel’s (USV’s) through our sister company Unmanned Survey Solutions which will give us the ability to provide turn-key solutions of pre-calibrated survey systems on a proven USV platforms to our existing customer base.”

Great Yarmouth based GeoAcoustics have been manufacturing marine survey equipment for over 42 years and produce world-leading sonar systems. The GeoSwath4 offers the industry's most efficient swath bathymetry and side scan seabed mapping system for shallow waters. The Pulsar side scan Sonar is designed for easy deployment and intuitive operation, acquiring high resolution acoustic images of the seabed. The GeoPulse Compact OTS is a technically advanced sub-bottom profiler with low power requirements and versatile deployment options.
