Fugro has commenced integrated survey work offshore India for the country’s multinational oil and gas company ONGC, under a three-year contract valued at approx. US$ 7.7 million.

The contract, awarded to Fugro for the third consecutive time, calls for engineering surveys in field developments off both western and eastern shores of India. The scope of the work includes bathymetric surveys, seabed mapping, shallow seismic profiling and well head investigation.

Deploying its dedicated survey vessel, Fugro Mapper, from September 2017, Fugro is performing surveys in water depths ranging from 10 metres to 100 metres.

"We have been supporting these field developments offshore India with our marine site characterisation services for more than two decades,' commented Mike Dravitzki, Fugro’s Regional Director. 'It is very satisfying to win this contract for a third consecutive time."
