STRYDE wins S3 contract to deploy 42,000 nodes for CCS project, onshore Denmark
STRYDE, a global leader in nodal seismic acquisition technology, has secured a major contract to supply 42,000 autonomous nodes to Smart Seismic Solutions (S3).
The nodes will be deployed on a 3D high-density seismic survey for the ground-breaking CarbonCuts carbon dioxide (CO₂) Storage Project onshore in Denmark, enabling a significant step forward in global efforts to combat climate change.
The CarbonCuts Project is a high-profile initiative aimed at identifying optimal onshore subsurface storage solutions for CO2 sequestration.
The seismic survey will be crucial in advancing Denmark’s ambitious goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2045, utilizing advanced seismic technology to map geological formations with unprecedented accuracy, ultimately helping to ensure safe and effective onshore CO2 storage.
With geological CO₂ storage now a globally recognized, proven, and safe technology to tackle the climate crisis, and CO₂ storage on land being significantly more affordable than offshore options, onshore CO₂ storage is becoming increasingly accessible for a wider range of emitters to manage their emissions responsibly.
S3, a leading geophysical service provider, is at the forefront of this initiative, spearheading the acquisition of a high-density seismic dataset using STRYDE’s innovative nodal seismic acquisition system.
“The CarbonCuts Project is a cornerstone in Denmark’s journey toward a greener future, and we are proud to contribute,” said Patrick Robert, CEO at S3. “The Rødby structure, an elongated anticlinal dome with a four-way closure that formed during the Mesozoic Era over a Zechstein salt pillow, is a fascinating target for this high-density seismic survey.
“STRYDE’s cutting-edge technology is pivotal to delivering superior seismic image quality. The dense deployment of STRYDE nodes provides exceptional clarity of the subsurface, enabling stakeholders to identify geological structures suitable for carbon storage with greater precision. This significantly reduces risks and enhances the reliability of long-term CO₂ sequestration solutions.
“STRYDE’s system is truly transformative, making seismic more accessible and effective for our customers.”
“This collaboration highlights how our unique seismic system is revolutionizing the industry, enabling the rapid and safe acquisition of the seismic data needed to empower organizations to make more informed decisions, driving meaningful climate action,” commented Mike Popham, CEO of STRYDE.
“Our solution significantly lowers the barriers for onshore carbon storage initiatives, and we are proud to help S3 deliver seismic data needed for this important project.”
Together, these organizations are paving the way for more sustainable energy practices and helping to secure a cleaner, greener future.
