PGS: Update on Seismic Acquisition Contract in South America
07 Gennaio 2019 - 7:59AM
January 7, 2019: Oslo,
Norway, PGS updates on changes of the contract for the 3D survey in
South America announced November 14, 2018.
The vessels Ramform Atlas and
Ramform Tethys mobilized early December 2018
for this survey. The contract had an estimated total duration
of approximately 13 vessel months and an estimated value in excess
of $75 million.
Due to unresolved issues affecting the survey,
both vessels have been on paid standby from December 23, 2018.
The client, ExxonMobil, has notified PGS that the
Ramform Atlas is no longer required. PGS will
receive payment for mobilization, work performed, standby and
demobilization. PGS expects to deploy the vessel on a MultiClient
program or contract survey shortly, but will incur idle time
relating to steaming and possibly standby before commencing an
alternative project.
ExxonMobil plans to deploy the Ramform Tethys to acquire a 4D survey offshore Guyana.
The vessel will continue on paid standby until she commences the
redefined program. PGS expects the vessel to be operating in the
area for at least three months.
