Shearwater GeoServices announced the award of a large multicomponent seismic survey over the North Viking Graben area offshore Norway by CGG.

The five-month project is expected to start in the second quarter of 2022 and will be conducted by the SW Amundsen. The survey will expand and enhance CGG’s data library of the area.

“We have a strong working relationship with CGG and look forward to returning to the North Viking Graben to acquire multicomponent seismic data,” said Irene Waage Basili, CEO of Shearwater. “Our partner has found diverse applications for its data library of the area, including for the insight it can bring to growing industries, such as carbon storage, demonstrating that seismic is an important contributor to the energy transition.”
