October 12, 2016

PERTH, Australia -- Searcher Seismic has commenced acquisition of the 11,000 km Hahonua 2D seismic survey offshore Papua New Guinea.

This new acquisition, in partnership with BGP, will increase Searcher's total seismic data library in the region to over 70,000 km.

In addition, Searcher and Gardline have initiated a multi-beam and coring survey, the Davaria geochemical survey, covering the entire Gulf of Papua to identify and analyze hydrocarbon seeps.

“Papua New Guinea continues to be an area of high interest for our clients, and these two new projects, when combined with our existing coverage, will provide a unique and comprehensive exploration tool for the entire offshore Gulf of Papua,” said Rachel Masters, global sales manager, Searcher Seismic.
