| Work Detail |
Norwegian marine geoscience and technology company Shearwater GeoServices has secured its second contract with French energy giant TotalEnergies for a project offshore Angola.
The project will include a three-month deepwater ocean bottom node (OBN) survey covering the Golfinho and Cameia fields, located 100 kilometers off the coast of Angola, in a 1,700-meter water depth, performed in direct continuation of the previously announced project.
Shearwater will deploy its Pearl node and the fit for purpose dual ROV-equipped SW Tasman for the work, with SW Gallien acting as a source vessel.
Shearwater CEO Irene Waage Basili said: “These consecutive projects underline the strength of our long-term strategy and adds to the already impressive utilisation of the Shearwater OBN platform. We are reshaping ocean-bottom seismic in West Africa, breaking through the industry’s quality and cost curves as leading OBN technology is adopted.”
In early October Shearwater announced it was set to carry out an OBN survey in Block 32 over the Louro and Mostarda fields for TotalEnergies. The survey will begin in January 2025 and will take two and a half months.
So far for 2025, the Norwegian company has the task of performing a two-month 4D seismic monitoring project in Ghana, at the Jubilee field, operated by Tullow Ghana Ltd.
Shearwater will also perform two consecutive towed streamer survey projects in the Asia Pacific Region starting in early Q4 2024. |
