Marine seismic service provider WGP Group , a subsidiary of Thalassa Holdings, has won a contract from ConocoPhillips to acquire seismic data in the North Sea.
The two month shoot on the Eldfisk field is scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2017.
The Eldfisk oilfield was discovered in 1970 and approved for development in 1975. Production started in 1979 and the field also contains some gas.
Eldfisk is one of the largest fields on the Norwegian continental shelf and the second largest of three producing fields in the Greater Ekofisk area. It is located in Block 2/7, about 16km south of Ekofisk and is close to the Danish and UK shelves in water depths of about 70m.
A year ago WGP Group was awarded a long-term seismic acquisition services contract by ConocoPhillips to acquire seismic data on the Ekofisk field.
