"I'm very pleased that Dolphin has been awarded this record contract in a seismic market that appears to be more competitive and selective. This and other recent awards demonstrate that Dolphin has an asset base and organisation that makes us a preferred contractor on large surveys requiring powerful solutions" commented, Atle Jacobsen, Dolphin Group's CEO.
