TGS has completed its latest 3D survey offshore Senegal

Asker, Norway | – TGS-NOPEC Geophysical Company ASA, referred to as TGS and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange, has completed its latest 3D survey offshore Senegal.

SN-UDO-19, off the country’s northern shore, follows the earlier SS-UDO-19 in the southern offshore. TGS will make available fasttrack data this spring with the full data-set released later in the year.

The acquisition vessel BGP Prospector has sailed 200 km (124 mi) north to acquire a further 2,024 sq km (781 sq mi) of 3D data off northern Senegal, again in partnership with GeoPartners and Petrosen.

OUP-NORD-20, will cover a block currently open and included in the present license round launched in Dakar last month.

The data should shed light on deepwater fan systems inboard of the 3D area that delivered the Yakaar and Tortue discoveries, and supporting the licensing round across this acreage.
