Polarcus starts 3D survey offshore The Gambia

July 20, 2015

DUBAI -- Polarcus has started a new 3D broadband multi-client project across the Mauritania-Senegal-Guinea-Bissau basin (MSGB), offshore northwest Africa.

The project, which is supported by industry funding, will cover an area of 1,500 km2 offshore The Gambia and is expected to run for 50 days. Final data products will be available in first-quarter 2016.

The prefunding has been secured in response to the heightened industry interest in the Cretaceous slope fan and shelf-edge reef plays along the entire MSGB margin, subsequent to the recently announced dual well successes in Senegal.
