4D P-Cable UHR Monitor
Survey in Gulf of Mexico
NCS SubSea has been awarded a 4D P-Cable Ultrahigh Resolution (UHR) monitor survey in the deep-water US Gulf of Mexico. The survey is planned to start in Q3 2021 and have a duration of approximately 45 days.
Superior Time-lapse Repeatability
Using the P-Cable System
The P-Cable high-resolution 3D marine acquisition system can be deployed at short notice and relatively low cost, making it attractive for time-lapse seismic reservoir monitoring.
Marine Seismic
Containerization
Our crew prepared a multi-channel marine seismic data acquisition system for shipment to the Gulf of Mexico for an upcoming geohazard survey. To gain efficiencies during mobilization and demobilization, our technical team engineered multiple units for containerization.
