PGS’ seismic acquisition vessel, Ramform Sovereign, has completed a large acquisition project offshore Angola using multisensor GeoStreamer technology. Operational and geological objectives were achieved successfully and safely, despite the COVID-19 restrictions.
The 2020 PGS Namibe Basin survey connects the three dimensional (3D) seismic coverage of southern Angola with PGS seismic data library coverage in Namibia, completing a large MultiClient footprint of high-quality broadband seismic data that spans the Namibe Basin.
“Predicted reservoir presence and distribution maps indicate that this area contains a variety of leads and prospects”, PGS claimsin a release. “Full depth-imaging incorporating FWI velocity model building will improve knowledge of the subsurface petroleum system and reduce the risk for frontier exploration”.
The fast-track data for Angola Namibe Basin will be available in late fourth quarter, likely around November. 2020.
