Seismic news

The Industry Technology Facilitator (ITF), in collaboration with Maersk Oil, Nexen, Shell, Siccar Point Energy, TechnipFMC and the Oil and Gas Technology Centre (OGTC), is leading a joint industry project (JIP) to investigate an alternative well foundation technology for subsea exploration and production wells.

The company has secured significant industry prefunding and has been granted the environmental permit for a broadband 3D marine seismic project in Australia.

CGG Multi-Physics has announced completion of the acquisition, processing and interpretation of a multi-client airborne gravity and magnetic survey of approximately 38 000 line km over the Perdido Fold Belt.

ION has delivered a regional framework consisting of approximately 30 000 km of data over the Austral and Malvinas basins' relatively under-explored petroleum region.

Blocks C22, C17 and C14 are located an average of 124 miles, or 200 km, offshore Mauritania. Together they measure nearly 8.4 million acres in water depths ranging from 3300 ft to 11 500 ft, or 1000 m to more than 3500 m.

CGG has announced the delivery of the final time-processed data from its Northern Viking Graben multi-client 3D BroadSeis™-BroadSource™ survey. This includes 35 000 sq. km of subsurface images across the Norwegian Northern North Sea.

GC Rieber Shipping ASA's 50% owned geoservices company Shearwater GeoServices has been awarded a 3D broadband marine seismic acquisition contract by ONGC for the planned 2017/2018 field season.

380 square miles of fast-track data are now available, completing this portion of the project.

Cairenn is the first of a series of multi-client surveys that CGG has recently been acquiring in the area. PSDM products for its Galway survey will be delivered before the end of the year.

The expanded programme will be approximately 9000 km and is the only modern data available offshore Panama.
