Shearwater Bags Woodside 4D Campaign

Shearwater GeoServices Holding said November 18 it had been awarded the largest-ever 4D seismic campaign in the Asia Pacific region, covering up to six fields operated by Woodside in Australia.

The campaign, slated to commence in Q4 2019, involves 4D seismic data acquisition covering the Pluto, Brunello, Laverda, Cimatti and Vincent fields with an option for one additional field. “The 4D seismic campaign will improve Woodside’s understanding of the fields’ production performance over time and provide data to guide future field developments,” Shearwater said.

This is the second 4D seismic campaign award by Woodside to Shearwater following a baseline 4D programme in Senegal earlier this year.

The campaign will be executed using the Amazon Conqueror, purpose-built for environmentally friendly seismic acquisition, and equipped with Isometrix seismic streamer system, the company said.
