The Ramform Atlas is currently mobilizing for the survey, with the acquisition scheduled to start around 10 May.

“This is the first large-scale MultiClient survey we are acquiring offshore Norway since 2020, as we experience increasing demand for high-fidelity MultiClient data from renewed exploration interest among our clients,” said president & CEO of PGS, Rune Olav Pedersen.

“The Ramform Atlas will acquire approximately 6,000 square kilometers of new GeoStreamer data in a second azimuth to existing GeoStreamer MultiClient data in the region yielding a Dual Azimuth product.”

At the beginning of the month, PGS also won a Wide Azimuth 3D acquisition contract offshore Cyprus.

Mobilization is scheduled to start in mid-June and acquisition is expected to complete in mid-August.
