The Paris-based geosciences player said the multi-client Davros survey being conducted by the 12-streamer seismic vessel Viking Vision is its largest ever shoot in the Asia-Pacific region.
Chief executive Jean-Georges Malcor said the contractor believes the survey “will reveal exciting new exploration opportunities, given its location adjacent to significant discoveries along the Rankin Trend”.
He said the new data “will significantly enhance interpretation of the area's Triassic to Lower Cretaceous reservoir units, which exceed 10 kilometres in thickness and are expected to host significant quantities of hydrocarbons, as has been confirmed by these previous discoveries”.
