Shearwater GeoServices has won an award from Petrobras of a large Ocean Bottom Node 4D Baseline survey over the Jubarte Field in the Campos Basin offshore Brazil.
Shearwater GeoServices has won an award from Petrobras of a large Ocean Bottom Node 4D Baseline survey over the Jubarte Field in the Campos Basin offshore Brazil.
The 810 km2 survey will start in the first half of 2021 and be conducted over a three-month period.
The vessel SW Diamond will operate Shearwater’s unique 3x3 source which is equipped with three sub-arrays on each of the three sources, as opposed to the conventional two, allowing increased efficiency without source compromise.
While conventional sources vary their energy in one direction versus another, this project’s omni directional source is designed to give out energy uniformly in all directions which will be key to 4D repeatability for this azimuth deepwater OBN acquisition, said Shearwater.
