STRYDE, the global leader in affordable and scalable onshore nodal seismic technology, has announced the first sale of its Mini Seismic System in Latin America to Energy Geophysical Services SAS (EGS), a provider of seismic exploration services in Colombia.
Following EGS’ successful deployment of STRYDE’s seismic technology across mining, civil engineering and oil and gas exploration surveys in 2024, EGS has now purchased the STRYDE Mini Seismic System. This acquisition enables them to integrate the technology into its operations for upcoming geophysical projects in Colombia.
Launched in Q4 2024, STRYDE’s Mini System is a compact, all-in-one nodal seismic acquisition solution designed for recording and producing seismic data deliverables from up to 1,500 nodes (channels). With industry-leading cost per channel, it makes seismic acquisition more affordable, enabling efficient survey design that helps optimise field operations.
The Mini System leverages STRYDE’s ultra-lightweight, compact, and autonomous seismic nodes to capture high-resolution subsurface images with minimal environmental impact—empowering EGS to expand into new exploration opportunities.

'The adoption of STRYDE’s nodal technology in Latin America has grown rapidly over the past three years, with successful deployments in Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Bolivia. This latest sale is a testament to the region’s increasing demand for technology that delivers faster, more precise subsurface imaging,' said Víctor Villamizar, head of business development – Latin America, Caribbean & Angola at STRYDE.
'By integrating our Mini Seismic System into their solution, EGS gains a highly efficient, cost-effective seismic acquisition offering, giving them a competitive edge in Colombia’s diverse and challenging terrains, across multiple sectors where seismic reflection is an important technique for exploration,' added Victor.
Rodolfo Ardila, managing director at EGS commented: 'We’re excited to be the first in Latin America to adopt this cutting-edge Mini Seismic System.
'This acquisition represents a major milestone for EGS, reinforcing our commitment to delivering top-tier seismic services across Colombia and significantly enhancing our ability to support the oil and gas industry while enabling seismic to be affordable for emerging energy exploration efforts.'
As demand grows for innovative seismic acquisition solutions that enhance efficiency and sustainability, STRYDE equips companies with the right technology to conduct responsible, cost-effective exploration in an evolving and energy-hungry market.
