Atle Jacobsen, Dolphin Group CEO, commented: 
"There is strong market demand for Dolphin's marine  
seismic services. High operational efficiency and  
fleet utilisation, improved contract pricing and  
strong Multi-Client sales from new projects, has  
generated better than expected third quarter revenues  
and profit." 



"From day one, Dolphin has emphasised the importance  
of building a strong internal geophysical and Multi- 
Client business competence. This strategy works.

Today our Multi-Client seismic model is being  
recognised by an increasing number new global clients  
and governmental authorities. By successfully  
initiating a senior unsecured bond loan of NOK 400  
million, Dolphin has strengthened its financial  
capabilities, secured the roll out of future strategy  
and increased its ability to compete in global  
markets."
