Geophysik GGD provides geophysical services for the exploring oil and gas industry, the mining industry, the construction industry as well as in the environmental sector. With the divisions seismics, potential methods and geotechnics Geophysik GGD is a leading German enterprise which offers the almost complete spectrum of geophysical services world-wide with focus on Europe, Central Asia, North Africa and Middle East.

The company history started in 1951 as “Geophysikalischer Dienst“. After the re-unification of Germany the present Geophysik GGD mbH was founded by privatisation. Geophysik GGD was recently extended by Geophysik IGS to enhance the international activities. Geophysik GGD is running several acquisition units, a computing centre for seismics, potential methods and GIS plus a laboratory with facilities for petrophysical investigations. With more than 50 years of geophysical services the company preserves the great variety of methods, utilises state of the art equipment, applies leading edge processing techniques and hence is able to provide a complex methodical approach and a profoundness of geological interpretation.

Geophysik GGD supports investigations and studies for the exploration of oil, gas, potash, lignite, ground water and raw materials as well as for of underground storages and in engineering geophysics. Beyond that, the company investigates foundation ground for buildings, railway/road traffic alignments and executes tasks in environmental protection.

In oil and gas exploration emphasis is laid on 2D/3D seismic interpretation with GeoFrame or SeisWorks, including reservoir characterization with Hampson Russell, and on 2D/3D seismic processing and reprocessing with ProMAX. Seismic data acquisition, 2D/3D workstation based field processing, field quality control and supervising, complex studies of weathering zones for seismic surveys, VSP and log processing as well as gravity and magnetic surveys, including 3D modelling and a joint interpretation, are further important activities in the field of oil and gas exploration.
