PGS kicks off multi-client survey in UK Continental Shelf

PGS has commenced a 3D multi-client survey offshore East Shetland in the waters of the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS).

The work will be carried out by the seismic survey vessel Ramform Tethys. The first data is expected in the third quarter of 2020 while full integrity depth volumes will be available in 2021.

The industry-funded project will cover both frontier and mature areas where new broadband seismic is needed to enable the interpretation of the internal reflectors of the main Brent Group reservoir level.

The survey aims to reveal which parts are remnant along the major fault between the East Shetland Platform and East Shetland Basin.
