Salt of the Earth: Imaging the Gulf’s hidden structures

Gulf of America: Integrating technologies to see beyond the salt The Gulf of America (GOA) remains a central pillar of US energy infrastructure, and its future potential is increasingly tied to the integration of new seismic technol­ogies that can address…

West African deepwater plays Tracking the Cretaceous mega-clastic systems

Unlocking deepwater potential Exploration in the Mauritanian coastal basin has historically focused on the Cenozoic salt-draped channel plays, as proven by the discovery of the Chinguetti Field in 2001. Since this time, nearly 80% of exploration wells has targeted this…

Gulf of America: Salt-driven structures, data-driven discoveries

Sharper imaging, smarter exploration How cutting-edge seismic techniques are transforming risk assessment in the GOA Since 2019, long-offset Ocean Bottom Node (OBN) technol­ogy has become a cornerstone for advanced imaging in the GOA, providing clearer views of subsurface structures that…
