Empowering tomorrow's energy through innovative seismic solutions
Our mission
At Terrex Seismic, we are driven by a vision to revolutionise the seismic industry. Our mission is to shape the future of energy exploration by creating unparalleled value and opportunity for our clients, employees, and the communities we operate within.
Terrex Seismic is not just about seismic data; it’s about shaping the energy future - one seismic survey at a time.
Together, we can unlock the energy potential of our planet while safeguarding its natural beauty and balance.
Our founding
Terrex Seismic (originally Geosystems) has existed and operated in Australia since 1981.
After identifying the opportunity to help unlock the energy potential of Australia’s largely under-explored resources, our founder Steve Tobin purchased the Australian division of Geosystems in 1997. The company was then rebranded and repositioned as a geophysics-driven, operationally focused seismic acquisition company.
Where we've come from
Terrex Seismic is one of Australia’s most experienced seismic contractors, having worked for the last 43 years in every major Australian onshore sedimentary basin as well as in numerous other locations around the world. We have acquired over 1,000 seismic surveys to date and pride ourselves on consistently supporting and serving the industry, bringing equipment and technical innovation to the forefront of seismic exploration regardless of the unpredictability of the cyclical nature of the resource industry. In April 2017, private equity group, Allegro Funds decided to invest in the Terrex Seismic journey. Seeing tremendous possibility in both the people and the DNA of Terrex Seismic, Allegro Funds become our majority shareholder. Allegro’s commitment to finding new paths to pave the way to better business coupled with Terrex Seismic’s unwavering drive to deliver the world’s most innovative seismic solutions has enabled Terrex Seismic the opportunity to again embrace innovation and transform into Australia’s first broadband nodal company.
Our vision Terrex Seismic stands at the forefront of seismic technology. We believe in unlocking the earth’s hidden energy potential - whether it’s harnessing renewables, tapping into unconventional resources, or optimising existing reserves. Our seismic imaging solutions pave the way for a cleaner, more resilient energy future. The journey ahead is an exciting one, and we pride ourselves in serving the ever-evolving requirements of global energy supply.
