Seabed Geosolutions will soon mobilise for the variation order that was signed today (July 27) by Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) with CGG to conduct a shallow water seabed survey.

The survey, over the Ghasha-Butini field, will take around 12 months and has a value of around USD 125 million.

In addition, Seabed Geosolutions has mobilised for an ocean bottom cable survey in Asia Pacific with a value of approximately USD 55 million. This survey is expected to be finished in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Seabed Geosolutions was formed in February 2013 as a joint venture between Fugro and CGG. It collects geophysical data on the seabed through an array of imaging technologies for oil and gas companies, with a focus on the development and production phases of oil and gas fields.
