Brunei Shell Petroleum Co. (BSP) awarded Geokinetics a contract 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, positioned around extensive field production infrastructure.

The project will be managed by Geokinetics’ Seafloor Operations (SFO) Group, which acquires seafloor seismic from beach to deepwater anywhere in the world, in all geographic and geological settings.

The SFO Group is comprised of a fleet of specialized proprietary vessels and equipment, including both ocean bottom cable (OBC) and ocean bottom nodal (OBN) recording systems.

“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,” said Ewan Neill, Geokinetics VP, Marine Acquisition.

Geokinetics deploys acquisition and processing technologies to 2D, 3D and 4D land, transition zone (TZ) and marine Ocean Bottom System (OBS) surveys in challenging environments.
