Shearwater Geoservices has been awarded the largest-ever 4D seismic campaign in the Asia Pacific region covering up to six fields operated by Woodside in Australia.
The campaign, planned to commence in Q4 2019, covers new 4D acquisition over the Pluto, Brunello, Laverda, Cimatti and Vincent fields with an option for one additional field. The 4D seismic campaign will improve Woodside’s understanding of the fields’ production performance over time and provide data to guide future field developments. This is the second 4D seismic campaign award by Woodside to Shearwater after the baseline 4D programme in Senegal earlier this year.
Irene Waage Basili, CEO of Shearwater GeoServices, said: ‘Our Isometrix equipped vessels have been the 4D towed-streamer technology of choice through the North Sea summer season, and we are very pleased to see Woodside choose this platform for its extensive 2019-2020 North West Australia 4D campaign.’
The campaign will be executed using the vessel Amazon Conqueror.
Meanwhile, Shearwater has won a seismic acquisition contract from Shell for a 600 km2 area in the western Black Sea. The one-month project will commence in Q4 2019 and will be conducted by the Polar Empress.
‘We will employ the Polar Empress in continuation of other successful work offshore Turkey this season,’ said Waage Basili.
