- The project covers multiple exploration blocks in Pakistani waters.
- Data will be combined with seismic inputs to lower exploration risks.
What happened
Electromagnetic Geoservices (EMGS), a geophysical services provider based in Norway, has secured a contract with Mari Energies, an upstream petroleum enterprise in Pakistan. According to Offshore Energy, the agreement involves acquiring controlled-source electromagnetic data across several exploration blocks located offshore.
Why it matters
The survey aims to refine prospect assessments and mitigate geological uncertainties prior to drilling operations. By integrating resistivity measurements from the EMGS technology with existing seismic and geological archives, project stakeholders hope to enhance decision-making processes for upcoming wells.
In a statement published on social media, EMGS expressed gratitude to Mari Energies and its joint venture associates for selecting the firm for the offshore campaign, highlighting productive technical discussions held with the company's management.
