April 8, 2019: Oslo, Norway,
PGS and TGS announce the North Tablelands 3D and Southeast Grand
Banks 2D MultiClient projects in Offshore East Canada.
North Tablelands 3D will cover approximately 5,000
square kilometers and together with the 2018 Tablelands 3D survey,
spans most of the open acreage included in the November 2020 bid
round. Ramform Titan will do the acquisition,
utilizing the GeoStreamer® technology. The project is expected to
commence in early June 2019, and PGS will process the GeoStreamer
data from the North Tablelands 3D survey.
The Southeast Grand Banks 2D project will comprise
of approximately 13,300 line kilometers primarily covering open
acreage in upcoming bid rounds in South Eastern Newfoundland (2021)
and Southern Newfoundland (2022). Acquisition will be performed by
MV Sanco Atlantic and the project is expected
to commence in early June 2019.
Following this ninth consecutive season of data
acquisition offshore East Canada, the jointly-owned library will
have approximately 48,000 square kilometers of 3D GeoStreamer data
and more than 189,000 line kilometers of 2D GeoStreamer data.
"PGS will take an integrated
approach to acquisition and imaging to maximize both the efficiency
of the project and the broadband benefits of our GeoStreamer
technology. We look forward to delivering another excellent dataset
for oil companies to evaluate new opportunities offshore
Canada," says PGS President and CEO Rune Olav Pedersen.
These projects are supported by industry
funding.
