PGS has completed data processing for five recently acquired PGS multi-client 3D surveys over basins spanning the Indonesian archipelago. All provide significant uplifts in seismic data quality, based on GeoStreamer broadband acquisition and imaging, it said.
Improved imaging throughout the seismic section is especially apparent for the deeper hydrocarbon plays that were previously not visible on legacy data. The hydrocarbon potential of all the basins has now greatly improved based on the new seismic data, the company added.
The North Sumatra MC3D prestack time data (PSTM) provides insights into a new, deeper, syn-rift play in this highly prospective basin. The new data displays numerous direct hydrocarbon indicators.
The North Madura prestack time data (PSTM) MC3D survey and the South Makassar prestack depth data (PSDM) MC3D are located in the highly prospective Tertiary basins of the southeast Sundaland margin.
Modern broadband GeoStreamer data from the survey images the proven Eocene source-kitchens and allows tracking of potential migration pathways to newly imaged prospects.
The West Timor PSDM MC3D survey offers new insights into both the underexplored fold and thrust belt and the proven prolific Mesozoic system of the Australian plate.
The West Abadi PSTM MC3D highlights potentially large new structures analogous to the adjacent multi-TCF Abadi and Sunrise Fields.
Depth imaging for North Sumatra and West Abadi will be available soon.
‘These five new seismic datasets acquired with GeoStreamer broadband technology offer essential insights for exploration teams in advance of the upcoming Indonesian licensing round,’ said Tad Choi, sales and new ventures manager, Asia at PGS.
