Our Competitive Advantages

Leading Acquisition Technologies

At TGS, we operate with an asset-smart model. We adapt our data acquisition approach, outsourcing to third parties or handling it internally, to select the most suitable vendors and technologies for imaging and intelligence challenges. This approach reduces overhead costs and maintains stability throughout industry cycles.

Accelerated Imaging

While acquisition is outsourced, we image and process the data in-house. This ensures our customers get the highest-quality seismic data. To learn more about our processing services, click here.

ROI Discipline

TGS typically targets projects that will earn sales returns between 2 and 2.5 times the investment. On projects with lower targeted returns, we require high levels of pre-funding to keep the investment attractive. 

Renowned Data Collection

TGS has one of the largest and best performing multi-client data libraries in the world. We utilize this data resource both as an ongoing revenue stream and to leverage unique insight using data analytics techniques. In addition, we are committed to developing platforms to enhance data accessibility and empower business decisions

Active Portfolio Management

The multi-client business is a portfolio business. Some projects may underperform and others exceed expectations. A 3D project is a significant financial undertaking, and TGS has the means to invest in a broad portfolio of projects to balance risks and rewards.

TGS has a truly global data collection with a diverse range of data types to serve the expanding needs of the energy industry. We strive to build and maintain leadership positions around the world. Our oil and gas data covers a wide variety of exploration plays including deepwater, pre-salt geologies, the Arctic and North America onshore. Our New Energy data and solutions support the evolving energy transition efforts across the globe. This diversity gives us significant stability and business continuity in the face of shifting markets, regional economic strain and geopolitical challenges.
