Schlumberger, TGS to undertake 3D reimaging project in off Egypt’s Red Sea coast

Oilfield services company Schlumberger and energy information company TGS are undertaking a 3D reimaging project in the Red Sea, TGS announced in a statement. The project will involve reimaging data from three overlapping seismic surveys covering 3.6k sqkm made between 1999 and 2008. All legacy seismic and non-seismic data will be integrated and advanced imaging technologies will also be applied to better identify complex structures. The data will be made available before the closing of Egypt’s Red Sea international bid round on 15 September.
