Searcher Seismic, in partnership with Dolphin Geophysical, has carried out a 1,407 sq km (543 sq mile) non-exclusive 3D seismic project on the Finnmark Platform area of the Barents Sea offshore Norway.
Processing is underway in Dolphin’s UK centre using OpenCPS software, and will enhance the imaging of the Jurassic sequence and also provide improved definition of the deeper Triassic and Permian Clastics. A full suite of deliverables will be produced during the processing.
With planned infrastructure in Veidnes outside Honningsvåg in Finnmark announced by Statoil, the survey area is receiving a renewed industry interest. Data will be available for participating companies from 3Q 2013 in preparation for Norway’s 23rd round nomination process.
