Shearwater GeoServices today announced the award of a 4D seismic monitor project at Equinor’s Mariner field offshore UK. This will be the third Isometrix survey over the field and the second 4D monitor survey. The one-month project will be executed during the 2022 North Sea summer season.

Time-lapse seismic surveys help maximise production from existing fields by providing subsurface data to update reservoir modelling and production simulations. Shearwater’s Isometrix multicomponent towed streamer technology has been designed to provide the most advanced images for geoscientists to build models from.

“Time-lapse seismic acquisition is a critical activity for maximising value creation from offshore oilfield assets, which is why our clients select world leading technology for these surveys,” said Irene Waage Basili, the CEO of Shearwater. “We have a long-established track record of executing 4D seismic surveys for Equinor and we look forward to return to the Mariner field to capture high-quality geophysical data for our client.”
