Conflict Minerals Report

for the reporting period January 1 to December 31, 2017

This Conflict Minerals Report (“CMR”) for the year ended December 31, 2017 is presented by CGG (hereinafter referred to as “CGG”, “we, “our” and “us”) to comply with Rule 13p-1 (the “Rule”) under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted the Rule in 2012 to implement the provisions of the US Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act relating to disclosure and reporting obligations concerning conflict minerals (“Conflict Minerals”) that originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, the Republic of Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia, and, together with the DRC, the “DRC Covered Countries”). “Conflict Minerals” are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), gold, wolframite or their derivatives which are limited to tantalum, tungsten and tin.

CGG is a global participant in the geoscience industry, as a manufacturer of geophysical equipment, as a provider of marine, land and airborne data acquisition services, and as a provider of a wide range of other geoscience services, including data imaging, seismic data characterization, geoscience and petroleum engineering consulting services, and collecting, developing and licensing geological data. Our clients are principally in the oil and gas exploration and production industry.

As of December, 31, 2017, CGG was organized in eight business lines, as follows:

 

    Equipment (which includes all the Sercel business entities or trademarks, such as Metrolog, GRC and De Regt);

 

    Marine Acquisition;

 

    Land Acquisition (including Land EM and General Geophysics);

 

    Multi-Physics;

 

    Multi-Client and New Ventures;

 

    Subsurface Imaging;

 

    GeoSoftware (including the software sales and development of Jason and Hampson-Russell); and

 

    GeoConsulting (including the consulting activities of Jason and Hampson-Russell combined with the consulting and geologic library business of Robertson, as well as Data Management Services).

We report our result only for the Equipment segment (i.e. the Sercel business entities), as these are the only entities within the CGG Group that may use Conflict Minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of certain products we manufacture, mainly electronic goods. Gold, tin and tantalum are used to plate or bond printed circuit boards or semi-conductors. Tungsten is used, in very small quantities, on machining tools and as a diffusion barrier on semiconductors and microelectromechanical systems that we use. These metals have specific electrical properties that are required to provide the high level of functionality and quality demanded by Sercel’s customers and cannot be replaced by other metals.

Products

Sercel manufactures a complete range of geophysical equipment for seismic data acquisition. Our products that contain Conflict Minerals are land and marine recording systems, land and marine cables, sensors, land and marine sources, quality control tools, streamers, underwater acoustics, downhole seismic tools and memory gauges. All these products contain electronic components, and hence Conflict Minerals.

Reasonable Country of Origin Enquiry

We conducted a reasonable country of origin enquiry (“RCOI”) based on the standardized Conflict Minerals Report Template (“CMRT”) released by the Responsible Business Alliance (“RBA”, formerly the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition) and Global e-Sustainability Initiative (“GeSI”) to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of our products were sourced from the DRC Covered Countries. We performed our risk assessment by identifying components or parts that could contain Conflict Minerals and then identifying the relevant suppliers.

Once this assessment was completed, we populated the list of the relevant suppliers with contact information. We sent letters to those suppliers explaining the reasons for the query and asking them to fill out the CMRT in full to determine whether the parts or components they sold to us contain Conflict Minerals and, if so, to determine the country of origin of such minerals and the smelters that supply the relevant suppliers.

Based on the information obtained from supplier declarations and responses, we concluded that we were not able to determine the country of origin of the Conflict Minerals used in our products and that further due diligence was necessary.

Conflict Minerals Policy

In October 2013, our Equipment segment adopted and implemented a Conflict Minerals Policy. This policy describes the RCOI undertaken and requires our suppliers to apply the same request for transparency and traceability to their own supply chain. Our standard terms and conditions of purchase have been updated to specify that each supplier is to perform due diligence on its own supply chain to determine the country of origin of the Conflict Minerals it uses.

We also have in place a company-level grievance mechanism, as described in our Business Code of Conduct, that enables employees and third parties to anonymously report concerns regarding compliance, including the use of Conflict Minerals that could originate from the DRC Covered Countries.

Due Diligence

As a consequence of the outcome of our RCOI, we designed a due diligence process that we believe conforms, in all material respects, to the framework provided by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas, Second Edition (the ”OECD Guidance”). We took

 

2


into account the fact that we do not purchase Conflict Minerals directly and that we are, to the contrary, at the very end of the supply chain. Our due diligence process was also rendered more complex by the fact that Sercel purchases a significant amount of parts or components through distributors located in Europe that are not yet subject to Conflict Minerals reporting.

We have formed a team of personnel including members of the purchasing departments of our five manufacturing sites (Carquefou in France, Houston (Texas) and Tulsa (Oklahoma) in the United States of America, Hebei in China and Rotterdam in the Netherlands) and the Sercel Legal Division.

We have performed the following due diligence measures:

 

    The supply chain teams of our main concerned subsidiaries conducted an internal review of all suppliers that could have sold component or parts that could contain Conflict Minerals during 2017 (“Relevant Suppliers”).

 

    Each concerned subsidiary then asked its Relevant Suppliers to complete the standardized CMRT released by RBA/GeSI that we have adopted as part of our due diligence process.

 

    A reminder was sent to Relevant Suppliers that did not provide a complete CMRT or that provided only their own Conflict Minerals policy without identifying the smelters in their supply chain.

 

    The Sercel Legal Division reviewed the answers received and consolidated the information collected for all concerned Sercel entities.

 

    We performed a detailed review of the reported smelter information disclosed in the questionnaires in order to determine the actual number of unique smelters identified. From the entities identified as smelters in the CMRT questionnaires, we excluded those entities not identified as smelters based on the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”, formerly the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative) smelters reference list.

 

    We next compared our list of identified smelters against the lists of CFS certified smelters and refiners as well as the list of smelters that are currently engaged in an audit process (referred to as “active smelters”).

 

    Sercel relies upon the information provided by the RMI, which certifies smelters and refiners as being conflict free (a Conflict-Free Smelter, or a “CFS”), after an independent audit has been conducted.

Sercel does not purchase these minerals directly, and tracing the country of origin is a complex task. We must rely on our direct suppliers and sub-contractors to provide accurate information on the origin of the Conflict Minerals used.

Due diligence results

We identified 458 suppliers that could provide us with components or parts that could contain Conflict Minerals. The response rate amounted to 67%, of which 72% sent us back the CMRT questionnaire duly completed, including a list of smelters that supply such supplier. However, some suppliers sent us only their Conflict Minerals policy or a statement despite our reminder and hence did not provide us with information on smelters. Some of our distributors provided questionnaires filled out by their own suppliers.

 

3


A large majority of the responses received provided smelter information at the supplier level and did not identify the smelters or refiners used for a particular part or component. We therefore have not been able to identify which smelter was relevant for any component we purchased.

Our due diligence efforts led us to determine that a certain number of smelters potentially used in our supply chains appear on the RBA/RMI lists of Conflict Free Smelters and Refiners, as set out below:

 

Conflict mineral

   Number of smelters      Percentage of
smelters that were
CFS certified as of
April 25, 2018
    Percentage of
smelters that were
“active smelters” in
the CFS audit program
as of April 25, 2018
 

Tantalum

     43        91     none  

Tin

     81        85     1

Gold

     150        66     5

Tungsten

     46        89     4

From the above, we concluded that more than 80% of the smelters identified are CFS certified or engaged in a CFS audit program and reflected these respectively as “CFS” and “active” in the list of smelters attached as Annex A. Where no such designation appears next to a smelter in Annex A, such smelter is neither CFS certified nor active in a CFS audit program. The percentage of smelters that were CFS increased compared to last year’s survey.

Based on the names of the smelters disclosed by our suppliers, we noted that the proportion of smelters potentially relevant to our supply chain that were CFS was as follows:

 

Minerals

   Proportion of Smelters that
were CFS
 

Gold

     81

Tantalum

     96

Tin

     93

Tungsten

     96

The suppliers’ responses have been electronically archived and will be kept for at least a five-year period.

Based on our supply chain due diligence efforts, we have not been able to conclusively determine the country of origin of all Conflict Minerals used by our suppliers and distributors or to determine to what extent they come from recycled or scrap sources.

The list of identified smelters is attached as Annex A.

Risk mitigation

We intend to take the following steps to mitigate the risk that our necessary Conflict Minerals benefit armed groups and improve our due diligence process:

 

    enhance supplier communications to improve supplier response rate and data accuracy and completeness;

 

4


    engage with any of our suppliers found to be supplying us with Conflict Minerals from the DRC Covered Countries and with smelters/refiners that are not Conflict Free to find an alternative compliant source;

 

    implement additional reporting capabilities;

 

    include a Conflict Minerals clause in renewed suppliers contracts; and

 

    engage with European suppliers that provided incomplete responses or did not provide answers for 2017 to help ensure they provide the relevant information for our 2018 review.

Report : we report on our supply chain due diligence by filing our Form SD on an annual basis.
