Borehole Seismometer Extreme Condition: Model G88-4.5
High-pressure and high-temperature borehole seismometer for micro-earthquake monitoring.
The G88-4.5 is a triaxial borehole seismometer which combines robust construction and high-temperature tolerance. Deployed in more than 150 boreholes around the world in settings from geothermal monitoring to hydraulic fracturing. The design results in a long life span with some instruments currently operating after 20 years of deployment. All three orthogonal components are gimbaled to give a borehole deviation tolerance of 14°. The G88-4.5 is purpose built for long term or permanent installation in high-pressure hostile borehole environments. An alternate model, the G88-2.0 offers a lower corner frequency in exchange for a lower temperature tolerance.
Features:
-
Fully gimbaled, 14° maximum tilt
-
Withstands up to 150 °C
-
Passive sensors
-
For permanent or semi-permanent installations
-
Custom versions can include accelerometers, magnetometers etc

Borehole Seismometer Observatory Grade: Model G110-1.0
High-pressure and low-frequency borehole seismometer for micro-earthquake monitoring.
The G110-1.0 is a single axis borehole seismometer which combines low corner frequency with the highest in-class performance level in sensitivity, reliability and longevity for micro-earthquake detection. Designed around the tried and true Mark L4C and optimised for earthquake detection and analysis it consists of a solely vertical component version of the fully triaxial seismometer G202-1.0. The geophone is gimbaled to give a borehole deviation tolerance of 9°. Represents 20 years of instrument development experience at IESE, the G110-1.0 is purpose built for long term or permanent installation in high-pressure hostile borehole environments.
Features:
