MultiClient Geophysical (MCG) has completed the acquisition of the part of the Maximus 2D Multi-Client survey covering blocks to be announced in the first deep-water bid round in the Salinas Basin, offshore Mexico.
MCG says that the survey comprises some 19,000 km of 2D seismic data and covers all 6 blocks to be included in the first deep-water license round in Mexico, in addition to all blocks included in the CNH 5 years plan for deep-water license rounds in the Salinas Basin.
A complete processed dataset will be available in February 2016. According to MCG, the seismic vessel is currently acquiring regional lines for the Maximus survey outside the bid round blocks.
