13 Novembre 2018 - 4:06PM
November 13, 2018: Oslo, Norway, PGS sells the
fiber optic permanent reservoir monitoring solution, OptoSeis®, to
Geospace Technologies.
Terms of the transaction include an initial cash
payment at closing of $1.8 million and contingent cash payments of
up to an additional $23.2 million over a five-and-a-half year
earn-out period. The contingent cash payments will be derived from
revenues generated during the earn-out period from products and
services utilizing the OptoSeis® fiber optic technology.
"After reorganizing during the fourth quarter
2017, we started exploring opportunities to divest our non-core
OptoSeis® technology early 2018. I am pleased that Geospace will
continue to offer this unique solution to clients. PGS looks
forward to support and complement Geospace's offering with survey
planning, imaging and acquisition services as and when required by
their customers," says President & CEO Rune Olav Pedersen.
Pareto Securities acted as financial adviser to
PGS in this transaction.
