Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9zpvs6/geophysical) has announced the addition of the "Geophysical Services in the US" report to their offering.

The industry's heavy reliance on energy companies resulted in extreme fluctuations during the five years to 2012. Nevertheless, as investment in oil and gas exploration returns, operators will experience sustained growth. In particular, rising crude oil and gas prices will cause a rebound in demand. Further, firms entering the industry will likely target highly specialized markets, including deep-sea surveys.

This industry gathers, interprets, and maps geophysical data. Firms often specialize in locating and measuring the extent of subsurface resources, such as oil, gas, and minerals, but they may also conduct surveys for engineering purposes. Firms use a variety of surveying techniques depending on the purpose of the survey, including magnetic surveys, gravity surveys, seismic surveys, or electrical and electromagnetic surveys.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
