Covering 1,800 km², Phase IV completes the programmed 14,500 km² survey of newly acquired 3D data in deep and shallow water in the promising Guyana-Suriname basin. The program also includes over 6,400 km² of reprocessed data. These new multi-client data will support Suriname’s deep and shallow water bid rounds.

Dechun Lin, EVP, Earth Data, CGG, said, “With our in-depth knowledge of the Suriname-Guyana region and leadership in high-end imaging technologies, CGG will deliver the high-resolution, high-fidelity images required to better understand Suriname’s full potential.”

David Hajovsky, Executive Vice President, Western Hemisphere, TGS, said, “Suriname continues to play a vital role in expanding the availability of high-quality data in the Southern Atlantic, a priority for TGS. We’re pleased to partner with CGG and BGP to enhance future exploration in this key region to further support our customer’s investment opportunities, ultimately leading to actionable insights that drive decision-making.”
