CGG GeoConsulting received a contract to supply digital well products to the U.K. government’s industry regulator, the Oil & Gas Authority (OGA), as part of a wider tender for comprehensive subsurface databases and information sources supporting exploration in underexplored U.K. Continental Shelf (UKCS) areas, according to a May 31 press release.
The data sets will support the OGA’s work across the E&P lifecycle including promoting future licensing rounds and undeveloped discoveries, regional exploration projects, area strategies and asset stewardship.
The digital well products supplied by CGG GeoConsulting will be used internally by the OGA and released into the public domain via the OGA’s website during 2017 to be used freely by E&P companies looking for potential new prospects in the UKCS.
