Regulatory News:
CGGVeritas (Paris:GA) (NYSE:CGV) announced today that it will
begin acquiring a fourth repeat survey (LoFS04) on the Ekofisk
field in the North Sea as part of the multi-year Life-of-Field
Seismic (LoFS) program for which it was awarded both the seismic
data acquisition and processing.
Mobilization is starting early June 2012, and the shooting
period will last approximately one month in accordance with the
LoFS program schedule. The program is being acquired with a
four-component (4C) fiber-optic permanent reservoir monitoring
(PRM) solution, deploying 16,000 Sercel OPTOWAVETM ocean-bottom
channels. More than two years after the full-scale fiber-optic
installation all channel sensors are providing data that is being
utilized to provide 4D reservoir monitoring images to the
client.
Quality Control and processing of the data from each repeat
survey is performed by a team of CGGVeritas acquisition and
processing specialists based in the client’s dedicated processing
center in Tananger (Norway). In addition to the full optical sensor
network trenched at the seafloor, a fiber-optic connection to the
shore allows real-time remote operation. CGGVeritas imaging experts
are drawing on their experience and expertise in processing
multicomponent 4D data to generate high-resolution time-lapse
seismic images of the reservoir.
Jean-Georges Malcor, CEO, CGGVeritas, said: “With the start of
this fourth repeat survey, it is extremely satisfying to see
OPTOWAVE and our Permanent Reservoir Monitoring solution providing
reservoir monitoring data to our partner in this revolutionary and
unique full-scale permanent monitoring technology. Our planned
R&D collaboration with the client for improved 4D repeatability
on Ekofisk confirms the position of CGGVeritas as a leading
provider of reservoir monitoring seismic solutions.”
