Shearwater GeoServices has been awarded letters of intent for three 4D towed streamer projects by Equinor and a 4D ocean bottom seismic (OBS) project by Lundin Norway for the 2020 North Sea summer season.
The 4D OBS project for Lundin Norway covers the Edvard Grieg field in Norway and is effectively the second repeat survey. Data acquisition will be executed by the vessels SW Cook (pictured) and SW Tasman with crews who have worked continuously on OBS projects in the North Sea throughout the 2019 summer season.
The two-month project for Lundin is scheduled to start in the second quarter of 2020.
SW Amundsen, equipped with multi-sensor technology, will be the lead vessel for the Equinor projects. The 4D surveys under this contract will be conducted at Norway's Sleipner West and Norne fields, and for the Sleipner CO2 storage project.
The total volume of work for Equinor is approximately four vessel months.
