Viridien secures Sinopec Geophysical Corporation order for 80K Sercel land nodes, reinforcing its global leadership in nodal seismic technology

(NYSE:CGG) Viridien announced that its Sensing & Monitoring business line, marketed under the Sercel brand, has been awarded a contract for 80,000 additional WiNG land seismic analog nodes by Sinopec Geophysical Corporation (SGC). The equipment will be deployed on major oil and gas exploration programs in China, focusing on regions with mountainous terrain, dense urban environments, and extensive infrastructure, which present particularly demanding seismic acquisition conditions. The WiNG solution is designed for large-scale and high-density land surveys, offering operational efficiency, reliability, and scalability. Sercel’s Pathfinder technology will be used alongside WiNG to provide optimized fleet management and real-time operational visibility, supporting crews in maintaining productivity and data quality in complex field conditions. This expansion will enable SGC to deploy seismic crews exceeding 100,000 channels on some of China’s largest and most technically demanding exploration programs. The order further strengthens the long-standing relationship between Sercel and SGC and demonstrates SGC’s continued confidence in Sercel technologies. Sercel is noted as having the world’s largest installed base of seismic acquisition equipment and strong relationships with global operators, which generates significant repeat business as customers expand and renew their fleets. The company’s differentiated technologies, proven reliability, and field expertise position it to capture further opportunities as exploration activity recovers. Jérôme Denigot, Head of Sensing & Monitoring at Viridien, stated that this fleet expansion is a strong endorsement of Sercel’s technology and partnership with SGC, and that Sercel’s market position is underpinned by its installed base, customer trust, and technology portfolio. Viridien employs around 3,000 people worldwide and is listed as VIRI on Euronext Paris SA (ISIN: FR001400PVN6).
