EMGS awarded USD 8.5 million contract offshore Mozambique
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA (EMGS) has today been awarded a contract worth
USD 8.5 million by a repeat customer to acquire 3D EM data offshore Mozambique.
The vessel BOA Galatea will be mobilized in early February, following completion
of her current work in New Zealand. The Mozambique survey will continue into the
early part of the second quarter.
Roar Bekker, EMGS chief executive officer, commented: "This customer regularly
uses 3D EM data to help de-risk hydrocarbon prospects and influence those all-
important drilling decisions. The fact that the company keeps coming back is, I
believe, a compelling demonstration of the value that we add to customers'
operations."
Update on Red Sea tender process
In August 2010, one of the world's largest national oil companies invited EMGS
to submit a tender for a project in the Red Sea. This tender process is ongoing
and EMGS has been informed that it has now reached its final stages.
