TGS has commenced the acquisition of a fourth 3D multi-client survey in partnership with PGS.
The survey covers 2,772 km2 in the North Viking Graben over an area which has proven to be a very successful petroleum province of the North Sea.
The data is being acquired by PGS’ Atlantic Explorer utilizing GeoStreamer technology. This year’s acquisition campaign, combined with the data acquired in 2009-2010, will total over 7,500 km2 of 3D data in this promising region.
The survey is supported by industry funding.
