Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA (EMGS) has received a contract worth USD 2.7 million from OMV (Norge) AS and its partners in PL537 for 3D EM data acquisition in the Barents Sea.

The survey will commence in July using the vessel Atlantic Guardian.

Atlantic Guardian is a purpose-built 3D EM vessel with the capacity to carry 200 receivers. It is equipped with parallel source systems, including winches, cranes and hydraulic feeds.

EMGS uses its proprietary electromagnetic (EM) technology to support oil and gas companies in their search for offshore hydrocarbons. EMGS supports each stage in the workflow, from survey design and data acquisition to processing and interpretation. The company’s services enable the integration of EM data with seismic and other geophysical and geological information to give explorationists a clearer and more complete understanding of the subsurface.
