Aker BP Awards Norwegian Sea 4D Survey
Aker BP (AKRBP.OL) has awarded Shearwater GeoServices Holding AS an ocean bottom seismic (OBS) 4D survey at the Ivar Aasen field in the Norwegian North Sea, Shearwater reported Monday.
“This is a welcome return to the Ivar Aasen field for Aker
BP with Qseabed,” Shearwater CEO Irene Waage Basili commented in a written
statement emailed to Rigzone. “Shearwater is established in all segments of
high-end offshore seismic, executing our clients’ projects with the
technologies of their choice, including market-leading solutions for ocean
bottom seismic.”
According to Aker BP’s website, the Ivar Aasen platform
holds the distinction of being the first manned platform on the Norwegian shelf
that is operated from an onshore control room. The company also notes the
platform is expected to receive power from shore via the Johan Sverdrup field
starting next year.
Shearwater pointed out that it plans to begin the OBS survey
in the second quarter of 2021 using the SW Cook and SW Tasman multi-purpose
vessels. The firm anticipates an approximately one-month project duration.
