TGS and PGS has announced the Torngat 3-D multiclient project in offshore East Canada on May 17.
Torngat 3-D will cover approximately 3,287 sq km (1,269 sq miles) and encompasses sections of the open acreage included in the Labrador South November 2021 bid round. PGS’ Ramform Titan will perform the acquisition, utilizing Geostreamer technology. The project is expected to commence in late July 2019.
The Torngat 3-D survey sits within Labrador Sea’s southern sedimentary basins where frontier exploration has already successfully identified hydrocarbons, such as in the nearby Hopedale and Snorri discoveries. Torngat 3-D will be the first 3-D seismic survey to be acquired offshore Labrador.
Following this ninth consecutive season of data acquisition in offshore East Canada, the jointly-owned library will have more than 189,000 km of 2-D GeoStreamer data and approximately 52,000 sq km (20,077 sq miles) of 3-D GeoStreamer data. An expansive well log library is also available in the region, along with advanced multiclient interpretation products that will improve play, trend and prospect delineation.
“The Torngat 3D survey will be instrumental in assessing several amplitude variations supported leads that were initially evaluated with our comprehensive 2D library in this region. Our combined seismic, well log and interpretation datasets provide the industry with invaluable subsurface insight,,” Kristian Johansen, CEO at TGS, said.
This project is supported by industry funding.
