NRG’s Xcite™ is a cutting-edge helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic (HTDEM) and magnetic system designed for exceptional resolution, depth, and versatility. Featuring a patented inflatable bird and NRG’s proprietary fast sampling algorithm, it enables both magnetic and EM sensors to be mounted on the same plane, maximising signal strength and delivering high-resolution data with a superior signal-to-noise ratio for mineral exploration, aquifer mapping, and geoscience applications. The system also offers logistical advantages with its lightweight design, rapid field setup and reducing mobilisation costs.
NRG’s Xtract™ gravity and magnetic system is designed for high-resolution, airborne basin mapping and regional exploration. Utilizing a slow-flying Pilatus PC-6 aircraft and precision GT gravimeters housed in a patented thermal control unit, Xtract™ excels in frontier petroleum environments. With over 500,000 km of survey experience, it delivers accurate, repeatable results for seismic planning and volcanic basin delineation in the most challenging terrains.
NRG’s Xplorer™ system delivers ultra-high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic and radiometric surveys, optimized for rugged terrains and complex geological settings. Utilizing dedicated low-noise aircraft, advanced sensor configurations, and high-speed data sampling, Xplorer™ ensures superior data quality. Its low-altitude operations enhance anomaly detection and structural mapping, making it ideal for mineral exploration and environmental monitoring.
NRG’s Xact™ system offers a cost-effective fixed-wing solution for high-resolution magnetic and radiometric surveys. Utilising the Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter and Airtracter AT-504 aircraft, Xact™ excels in mapping subtle geological features, even in remote areas. Advanced sensor configurations and proprietary data processing ensure superior data quality, making it ideal for mineral exploration and geological mapping.
NxT is a next-generation airborne gravimeter that delivers sub-milligal accuracy from both helicopter and fixed-wing platforms. Its strapdown IMU design, laser ring gyros, and patented thermal control enable precise low-level gravity data collection alongside magnetic, radiometric, or EM surveys —without compromising flight patterns, flight height or production rates. NxT sets a new standard in high-resolution airborne gravity data.
