TGS Announces Its First 3D Multi-client Seismic Survey Offshore Brazil
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
HOUSTON (13 November 2013) - TGS, in partnership with Dolphin Geophysical, will
commence acquisition of a new 3D multi-client survey, Olho de Boi, covering
5,000 km(2 )offshore Brazil. The survey is designed to image pre-salt plays in
the hydrocarbon rich Campos Basin and is located northeast of the Pão de Açúcar
discovery in an area of similar structural and stratigraphic characteristics.
"The Olho de Boi survey will be TGS' first 3D survey in Brazil," stated Rod
Starr, Senior VP Western Hemisphere for TGS. "The Company has conducted
considerable geologic review and reprocessing of existing 2D data to ensure
strategic placement of the survey in a highly prospective area in the Campos
Basin. We expect this 3D survey will be of high interest to the industry for
future lease round activities."
The seismic data will be acquired by the M/V Sanco Swift. Data processing will
be performed by TGS using its proven proprietary broadband processing
technology, Clari-Fi(TM). Data will be available to clients in Q4 2014.
