In Wyoming, a state agency voted to fine Geokinetics for failure to provide updates on ongoing reclamation work. In that same month, Geokinetics filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Delaware. On Friday, Geokinetics said it had successfully emerged from Chapter 11 protection, and said new stakeholders already have demonstrated support for the reorganized company by investing $25 million in new equity capital. "Our future at Geokinetics looks very bright," CEO David J. Crowley said. In March, the company solicited door-to-door in Jefferson Hills to obtain permits from landowners to access their properties for testing.
