SeaBird Exploration has said it is to acquire a long-offset survey in Belize, starting mid-October 2016.

SeaBird will use the Northern Explorer to acquire the survey and the anticipated duration of the program is three to four weeks.

Seismic activity offshore Belize, South America, has been opposed by environmental groups including Oceana, which has launched a petition against the activity. 

Meanwhile, Belize currently has no active offshore exploration licenses. There have been calls for a national referendum on the topic.
