EMGS awarded 3D EM survey by TOTAL E&P NORGE
(Thomson Reuters ONE) - Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA (EMGS) has been awarded a contract byTOTAL E&P NORGE AS to provide 3D EM data acquisition and processingservices in relation to the Frigg field in the North Sea. The surveywill be conducted in September using the purpose-built 3D EM vesselBOA Thalassa.Frigg was the world's largest and deepest offshore gas field when itwas discovered in 1971. Field production ended in October 2004, andthe decommissioning activity is expected to be finalised soon. Thelicense is operated by TOTAL.The objective of the EM work programme is to develop a betterunderstanding of the reservoir as of today. The Clearplay Evaluate 3DEM data will be acquired in an area of 100 km2 and in water depths ofapproximately 100 meters using densely sampled, wide-azimuth 3D EMgrids.ContactsRoar Bekker, EMGS chief executive officer, +47 73 56 88 10Svein Knudsen, EMGS chief financial officer, +47 22 01 14 00About EMGSEMGS uses its proprietary electromagnetic (EM) technology to supportoil and gas companies in their search for offshore hydrocarbons. Thecompany is the EM market leader, and provides Clearplay, the world'sfirst fully integrated EM system.Three service offerings - Clearplay Find, Test and Evaluate - havebeen designed to assist operators in the exploration and productionphase. Clearplay supports each stage in the workflow, from surveydesign and data acquisition to processing and interpretation. Theservices enable integration of EM data with seismic and othergeophysical and geological information to give explorationists aclearer and more complete understanding of the subsurface. Thisimproves exploration efficiency, and reduces risks and the findingcosts per barrel.EMGS operates the world's largest EM survey vessel fleet and hasconducted more than 450 surveys to improve drilling success ratesacross the world's mature and frontier offshore basins. The companyoperates on a worldwide basis with main offices in Trondheim andStavanger, Norway; Houston, USA; and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
