Unveiled at the EAGE Annual Conference and Exhibition in Toulouse, France, Accel is designed to overcome the challenges of today’s complex, high-density seismic operations by accelerating survey deployment, increasing operational efficiency gains and consistently delivering the highest-quality data.

Accel sets a new standard for onshore seismic data acquisition by eliminating the need for nodes to be buried or planted in the field and thereby drastically reducing deployment time and labor requirements. With its unique droppable design, compact size, and integrated smart portable deployment system, Accel streamlines logistics, improves in-field agility and helps to reduce operational costs by up to -30% and significantly lower HSE risk.

At its core, Accel is powered by the industry-leading Sercel QuietSeis MEMS sensor, a long-standing benchmark of total data integrity. Built-in, field-proven Sercel Pathfinder QC technology also provides near real-time quality control status monitoring and ensures reliable node retrieval.
