Two new 3D GeoStreamer® surveys over Potiguar and Sergipe-Alagoas add to PGS coverage for the Brazil 15th Round, complementing Santos and Campos data. Brazil's pre-salt acreage and mature offshore basins offer attractive and lucrative exploration opportunities for 2018.

Data Availability

Final imaging products for Ceara Fortaleza and Potiguar Aquiraz are available now. Fast track data on Potiguar Aracati will be available in Q3 2018. 

Our next project - SEAL Pirambu - targets the Cretaceous/Lower Tertiary section in the Sergipe-Alagoas basin with early out data expected four months after the final shot.

Technology Advantage

These latest prefunded MultiClient GeoStreamer datasets provide a superior basis for exploration decisions. In addition, they can be used as a baseline survey for future 4D studies, or match existing baselines, making this a cost-effective solution for exploration, evaluation, field development and production monitoring. 

GeoStreamer dual-sensor data offers access to the full wavefield. Combined with advanced seismic imaging technologies, this provides the most reliable seismic foundation to support exploration decisions on these AVO turbidite reservoirs. 

Our Titan-class acquisition platform, Ramform Tethys, deployed a highly effective deep-tow acquisition configuration of 16 x 8100 m streamers with 100 m separation.

Additional Coverage

The new projects in the Potiguar and Sergipe-Alagoas basins supplement our extensive data library coverage on Campos basin and the vast Santos Vision broadband package. 

Santos Vision is an exciting reprocessing project designed to address imaging challenges presented by deep water and structurally complex salt geometries. Santos Vision delivers high-quality depth imaging using state-of-the-art algorithms, velocity model building, plus advanced imaging workflows.
