Geokinetics to Shoot Seismic for Brunei Shell Petroleum

Geokinetics has secured a contract from Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP) to acquire a high resolution 3D seismic survey offshore Brunei Darussalam.

The acquisition is scheduled for Q2 2017 and involves the deployment of a hybrid recording solution that comprises both towed streamers and ocean bottom nodes.

David Crowley, president and CEO of Geokinetics said: “This marks our fourth project with BSP within the last six years, which clearly demonstrates the trust that Geokinetics has earned with this prestigious client.”

The project will be managed by Geokinetics’ Seafloor Operations (SFO) Group, which comprises a fleet of specialized vessels and equipment, including both ocean bottom cable (OBC) and ocean bottom nodal (OBN) recording systems.

Ewan Neill, vice president, Marine Acquisition said: “Our hybrid recording system solution, combining streamer and nodal, provides BSP with the most cost effective solution for acquiring the seismic data that is required to underpin this field’s future development program.”
