Minister for Resources and Northern Australia, Matt Canavan, has welcomed a new seismic survey probing for gas and mineral resources in the Northern Territory’s Barkly region.
The 820km survey is in an area where little exploration has previously taken place and is being hailed as a potential ‘missing link’ between Mt. Isa and the Betaloo sub-basin.
Mr Canavan described the Beetaloo as a sub-basin with potential to deliver 178,000 Petajoules of shale gas, a bigger basket than...
Polarcus has continued its offshore West African safari by announcing another 4D marine seismic acquisition project in the region.
The seismic service provider said the project duration would be approximately two months and is scheduled to start in the fourth quarter of 2019, after a scheduled class docking.
Polarcus did not provide further details about the project and had worked on a seismic project in the same area offshore West Africa earlier this year.
On the same day last week that TGS announced the commencement of its Midnight 3D seismic survey to “further solidify its core position in the Inga/Fireweed area” of British Columbia, Canada, the seismic services provider revealed it would also conduct a new 3D multi-client project offshore Argentina.
The Norwegian company said the British Columbia survey merges into TGS’ existing onshore Canadian seismic data coverage in the condensate region of the Montney basin and straddles a...
Searcher Seismic has announced the expansion of its modern offshore data library with the completion of its Northern Basins Prospectivity Study in Papua New Guinea.
Searcher, in conjunction with Discover Geoscience, has compiled the Northern Basins Prospectivity Study following its successful acquisition of the Solomon Sea Broadband Non-Exclusive 2D seismic survey in 2017.
Searcher said the study offers the industry a detailed understanding of the basins and hydrocarbon potential of...
Bunbury Energy has commenced a three-day aerial survey spanning 675km2 of the South West.
CGG Aviation will fly a light aircraft about 500 feet above the exploration area to assess subsurface geology in a project across the Shires of Capel, Dardanup and Donnybrook-Balingup and parts of Bunbury and Busselton.
This fulfils a long-standing aim of Bunbury Energy to investigate acreage in the South Perth Basin to reprocess data previously gathered in the 1950s and ‘60s with newer...
