STATEMENT FROM BELL GEOSPACE 

We hope that as you read this announcement your family, your friends and you are safe and in good health, as we are all confronted by the threat of COVID 19. The Bell Geo executive team is closely monitoring the pandemic to ensure we are doing the best possible job at this time for our people, our customers and partners.

We would like to sincerely thank our team for demonstrating ongoing determination and flexibility, we are prouder than ever of the people that we have at our organisation. In addition to the travel guidance of public health authorities, we have restricted international and domestic travel until the expert advice changes.

As of March 18, we have made working from home mandatory for all employees, with limited exceptions, and optimised online meetings to facilitate continuity. Bell Geo’s systems and applications were already set to enable employees to work securely anywhere in the world and thus the transition has been pretty seamless. Operationally we have had to temporarily ground our aircraft whilst the countries that we are working in are in lockdown. We are cooperating with our customers, governments and partners to be able to expedite action as and when it is appropriate.

The team at Bell Geo is seizing the opportunity during this downtime to plan the details of upcoming contracts across the world, both in oil and gas markets and mining. We also have a number of very exciting technical developments underway which we look forward to announcing soon. We wish all the best for you and your families and if there is anything our team can do to be of assistance please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Please follow us on social media for ongoing updates.
