Core offering

Seismik provides passive seismic monitoring and microseismic data processing services for the energy industry, using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) and conventional sensor networks to detect, locate, and characterize induced and natural seismicity. The company delivers end-to-end geophysical services — from seismic network design (DASNetDesign) and downhole data reprocessing to hydraulic fracture monitoring (SafeFrac), stress inversion (StressInversion), magnitude analysis (MaxMag), and discrimination between natural and induced events — alongside custom software development, equipment delivery, and training.

Product overview

Seismik s.r.o. provides a comprehensive portfolio of passive seismic services for the energy industry. The company offers a unified suite of monitoring, processing, and analysis services centered around microseismicity detection and characterization. Key service offerings include surface and downhole microseismic monitoring, DAS data processing, seismic event discrimination, real-time traffic light systems (SafeFrac), network design optimization (DASNetDesign), stress inversion analysis, and maximum magnitude estimation (MaxMag). The portfolio also includes custom software development, professional training, and seismic equipment delivery. Services target the oil and gas, geothermal energy, CO2 storage, and nuclear energy sectors.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Passive Seismic Monitoring Services End-to-end passive seismic monitoring for energy-sector clients, covering microseismic event detection, location, and characterization using both conventional sensor networks and Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS). Designed for oil & gas operators, geothermal developers, CO2 storage projects, and nuclear-related stakeholders who need auditable monitoring of induced and natural seismicity.
• Surface Microseismic Monitoring Surface-deployed microseismic acquisition and processing services for monitoring hydraulic fracturing, injection, and reservoir stimulation operations. Targets operators needing non-intrusive, area-wide monitoring where downhole access is limited or unavailable.
• Downhole Data Reprocessing Reprocessing of historical downhole microseismic datasets using updated velocity models and modern algorithms to improve event locations, magnitudes, and interpretation quality. Serves operators with existing archives who want refreshed interpretations without new acquisition campaigns.
• DAS Data Processing Specialized processing of Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data acquired on fiber-optic cables for microseismic and passive-seismic applications. Enables dense, along-fiber sensing for hydraulic fracture monitoring, injection surveillance, and reservoir imaging where conventional sensor arrays are impractical.
• Induced vs. Natural Seismicity Discrimination
