Snøspurv Non-Exclusive 2D Seismic Survey

Enhancing Exploration in the Barents Sea

Spanning over 6,250 kilometers, the Snøspurv 2D Seismic Survey provides high-resolution 2D data offering a generous boost in data quality, revealing thrilling new exploration possibilities across the Bjarmeland and Finnmark Platforms, with ties to 24 exploratory wells, among them Norvarg, Gouvca, Wisting, Atlantis, and Apollo, enhancing signal clarity crucial for imaging the depth and structure of these areas, which are identified for their hydrocarbon potential.

Designed to enhance the seismic resolution of the prospective Permian, Triassic, and Jurassic sections of the Bjarmeland and Finnmark Platforms, the Snøspurv Seismic Survey is a key resource for exploration companies aiming to unlock the full potential of these regions. This progress is momentous in creating high-resolution velocity models to intensify imaging of the deep structure, offering a more precise assessment of hydrocarbon potential and aiding confident exploration decision-making.
