Greater Johan Castberg, Barents Sea
Redefining reservoir imaging in this highly prospective area
Delineate multiple depth targets in the Barents Sea with CGG’s proprietary TopSeis™ acquisition and imaging solution. The survey includes the highly prospective Castberg area, covering existing and newly awarded licenses in addition to open acreage with several play types that range in age from Devonian basement to Paleogene. The data was acquired in 2019 in cooperation with TGS and is being processed using the latest velocity modeling and imaging technology, including time-lag FWI.
The unique TopSeis solution combines an innovative source-over-spread configuration with CGG’s advanced imaging technology, and delivers vastly improved images in the challenging Barents Sea environment.

Highlights
- 5,168 square kilometers of multi-client fast-track PSDM data available now, with final PSDM products available in H1 2021
- Superior reservoir imaging with rich near offsets, high trace density, low noise
- Enhanced reservoir characterization with high-quality AVO information
- One-stop data set providing excellent delineation of targets from shallow to intermediate depths
- TopSeis configuration with five wide-spread sources deployed above the spread, with an additional source on streamer vessel to provide long-offset data for FWI and deep imaging
