Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS) and TGS are pursuing their fourth 3-D seismic project offshore Eastern Canada for 2017.
Long Range 3-D will comprise about 9,100 sq km of 3-D GeoStreamer data in the Eastern Newfoundland region, a news release said. The survey will be included in the November 2018 licensing round under Newfoundland Labrador’s Scheduled Land Tenure system.
Following the surveys’ completion, the jointly-owned library will have more than 175,000 line km of 2-D GeoStreamer data and 28,500 sq km of 3D GeoStreamer data, the release said.
“Our increased data library coverage in the Newfoundland Labrador region will be of benefit for oil companies exploring this high potential area,” PGS CEO Jon Erik Reinhardsen said in the release. “ We will operate three 3-D vessels and one 2-D vessel offshore East Canada this year, which is more than ever before and reflects high customer interest.”
