CGG was awarded two contracts by Statoil ASA to provide long-term seismic imaging services for permanent reservoir monitoring (PRM) operations on the Snorre and Grane fields in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea. The scope of each contract also includes acquisition QC services.
The contracts are for an initial fixed term of four years for each field, with an option for Statoil to extend each contract by two further terms of two years each. The first survey is scheduled to begin in October over the Snorre field.
CGG will set up two PRM dedicated processing centers within Statoil’s offices in Stavanger and Bergen. In this way, acquisition QC and imaging of the data from each repeat survey will be performed by a team of CGG specialists in close collaboration with Statoil’s Snorre and Grane asset teams.
