(WO) – TGS has secured a three-year extension to its ongoing ocean bottom node (OBN) seismic acquisition contract in the Gulf of America/Mexico, reinforcing continued demand for high-resolution subsurface imaging in offshore developments.
The extension builds on a multi-year proprietary program with a major operator, supporting reservoir characterization and field optimization across existing assets. OBN seismic technology is widely used in complex offshore environments, particularly in mature and deepwater fields where enhanced imaging is critical to maximizing recovery.
TGS said the contract reflects sustained operator investment in subsurface data to improve drilling accuracy and production performance. The company has been conducting the survey under a long-term agreement, with the latest extension ensuring continuity of data acquisition activities over the next three years.
“ This continuation of a long-term commitment from a major producer in the Gulf of America… highlights our ability to adapt to evolving industry priorities,” said CEO Kristian Johansen.
The award underscores the ongoing role of advanced seismic technologies in supporting offshore development strategies, as operators focus on optimizing existing fields and improving capital efficiency.
