Australian operator Santos has started a 3D seismic survey in the Bedout sub-basin to help assist with planning for the potential development of the large Dorado oilfield, as well as to support future exploration drilling in the area.
The Keraudren survey, covering 3090 square kilometres, is expected to take around 70 days to acquire, with processing of the data to be fast tracked to be available for interpretation in early 2020, said joint venture partner Carnarvon Petroleum.
