PGS will acquire geophysical data in 2022 for two of the largest CO2 storage projects in the world.
PGS will acquire geophysical data in 2022 for two of the largest CO2 storage projects in the world.
The company is collaborating with Equinor on long-term monitoring of the Sleipner field in the North Sea.
Meanwhile, PGS has won a seismic acquisition contract for CO2 storage offshore Norway from Equinor on behalf of Northern Lights JV. Acquisition is scheduled to start in Q2 2022 and has a duration of approx. 1 month.
Julien Oukili, geophysical support manager at PGS said, ‘In the early days of CO2 monitoring, it was claimed that the CO2 plume was “easy to see” but more recent investigations have revealed that may not be true – it seems high-quality broadband data is needed to deliver accurate CCS monitoring and measure plume and overburden evolution over time.’
