The data covers a 15,400 km2 area over blocks Z5-C and Z5-D and surrounding open acreage. It was acquired as part of a multi-client program agreed between CGG and Mozambique’s Instituto Nacional de Petroleo (INP) in 2017.
Final PSDM deliverables will be released in Q4 2019 and be complemented by a JumpStart™ integrated geoscience package as well as a geological regional study (2017 East Africa Robertson Study), and the Robertson New Ventures Suite of exploration screening tools.
Luc Schlumberger, EVP, Multi-Client & New Ventures, said: “Our comprehensive suite of geoscience products for Mozambique will bring the industry new insight into the hydrocarbon prospectivity of this exciting new exploration area. The fast-track data has already revealed key details of how the prospective reservoirs of the thick Zambezi Basin sediments are affected by the nearby Beira High. This valuable insight will help exploration companies prepare their strategy for the upcoming licensing round.”
