Viridien and SLB complete the data acquisition for a multi-client survey in Bonaparte Basin, offshore Australia
Viridien and SLB have completed a new multi-client survey in the Bonaparte Basin, offshore Australia, covering approximately 6,760 sq km. The ultramodern PSDM seismic data acquisition, which received industry support and prefunding, aims to evaluate this prospective yet underexplored area. The final processed data will be available in Q2 2025.
The survey addresses historical imaging challenges in this complex geological area, characterized by carbonates and shallow water. The project utilized Sercel Sentinel MS multi-component streamers and the Sercel QuietSea marine mammal monitoring system. Notably, the survey area partially covers a recently awarded carbon storage block, permit G-13-AP.
Viridien e SLB hanno completato una nuova indagine multi-cliente nel Bacino Bonaparte, al largo dell'Australia, che copre circa 6.760 km². L'acquisizione di dati sismici PSDM ultramoderni, che ha ricevuto supporto dall'industria e pre-fondazione, mira a valutare quest'area promettente ma sottosviluppata. I dati finali elaborati saranno disponibili nel Q2 2025.
L'indagine affronta le sfide storiche di imaging in quest'area geologica complessa, caratterizzata da carbonati e acque poco profonde. Il progetto ha utilizzato streamer multi-componente Sercel Sentinel MS e il sistema di monitoraggio dei mammiferi marini Sercel QuietSea. È importante notare che l'area dell'indagine copre parzialmente un blocco di stoccaggio di carbonio recentemente assegnato, permesso G-13-AP.

Paris, France – October 24, 2024
Viridien and SLB have recently completed the acquisition of a new multi-client survey in the Bonaparte Basin, off the NW coast of Australia, that has received industry support and prefunding. The resulting ~6,760 sq km ultramodern PSDM seismic data set will provide a thorough evaluation of this highly prospective and underexplored area to improve industry understanding. The data is currently being processed and the final data will be available in Q2 2025.
The complex geological area has been historically challenging to image due to the presence of carbonates and the shallow water. The new survey will provide modern, high-quality data over an area lacking recent, or any 3D data. The data also partially covers a carbon storage block, recently awarded as permit G-13-AP. The survey deployed Sercel Sentinel MS multi-component streamers and the Sercel QuietSea marine mammal monitoring system.
Dechun Lin, EVP, Earth Data, Viridien, said: “We are delighted to have partnered with SLB for the first time in Australia to successfully complete this large data acquisition project. The new high-quality data set will give interested players greater insight into the exploration and carbon storage potential of this promising area. We will continue to look for opportunities to invest in the country.”
