CGGVeritas said the contract award, which has a further one-year extension option, marks over 20 years of continuous land seismic presence by the company in the nation.
The high-channel-count, high-productivity 3D land seismic operations the venture is currently conducting will benefit from new technologies that will allow for improved penetration of the seismic signal, resulting in a high-density dataset.
CGGVeritas chief executive Jean-Georges Malcor said in an announcement that the new award was a fitting reward for the crew, saying Ardiseis and PDO shared a strong commitment to each other.
