Oslo-listed seismic data specialist TGS has kicked off a new multi-client ultra long offset OBN data acquisition campaign in the Gulf of Mexico.
The so-called Amendment 4 project will expand node coverage in TGS’ multi-client library, adding over 1,100 sq km in the Mississippi Canyon, Ewing Banks, and Grand Isle South areas.
The project, supported by industry funding, will feature TGS’ Gemini enhanced frequency source offering lower frequency and improved signal-to-noise for ultra-long offset OBN seismic compared to conventional seismic sources.
This will result in more accurate subsurface imaging of the complex subsalt geology in the region. The acquisition phase of this program is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2025, with final deliverables available in the second quarter of 2026.
