Shearwater Geoservices has launched a multi-client 3D seismic survey offshore Nigeria which is backed by significant industry funding and will be executed in partnership with Harvex Geosolutions and the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).
The two-month project, carried out by Shearwater’s vessel SW Duchess, will provide high-resolution subsurface data across the Western Niger Delta Basin, supporting exploration decisions and future licensing rounds in one of West Africa’s most prospective oil and gas regions.
Irene Waage Basili, CEO of Shearwater, said: ‘By investing in high-quality seismic data, where we can both capture rapid returns and create longer-term value, we are enabling smarter decisions and helping to shape the future of energy security in West Africa and beyond.’
Meanwhile, Shearwater has won a contract for a large 3D seismic survey offshore Trinidad and Tobago for ExxonMobil. The deepwater survey covering 6000 km2 of full-fold area, will start in the first quarter of 2026 and is expected to take around five months. Shearwater’s vessel Amazon Warrior will utilise its multi-component Isometrix streamer technology.
