Compagnie Generale de Geophysique (CGG) is to acquire 3,000km of 2D seismic data over the Nabeul Block offshore Tunisia for Plectrum. The vessel MV CGG Princess will acquire the data in Q2 of 2007.
Plectrum has recently completed reprocessing 1,000 km of older regional seismic data over the Nabeul Block. These reprocessed seismic lines show a dramatic improvement in data quality confirming earlier assessments of prospectivity and also reveal additional leads on trend with the neighbouring Oudna Field located 12 km to the west.
"The award of this contract marks a turning point for Plectrum as we move forward into offshore operations. We are reviewing our seismic processing options for the 2007 survey and will update the market accordingly once we have finalised our plans," Mike Whyatt, Plectrum's executive chairman, said. |
