PGS has won an offshore wind site characterization contract in Europe, with mobilization scheduled for July.
The company will use its ultra-high-resolution 3D streamer, which PGS says will provide more detailed subsurface data for shallower targets than traditional seismic acquisition systems.
“We are very pleased with this offshore wind site characterization contract award, which extends visibility for our offshore wind operations through the third quarter,” says Rune Olav Pedersen, PGS president and CEO.
“We successfully entered the offshore wind site characterization market last year and have secured continuous activity since startup. Our geophysical approach by using an ultra-high-resolution 3D towed streamer system is significantly more efficient than traditional 2D and geotechnical solutions. Our clients value the shorter lead time and the high data quality we offer. There is a significant volume of offshore wind site characterization projects out for tender, and we expect increasing activity going forward.”
The contract has an approximate duration of two months.
