en.Wedoany.com Reported - On May 27, Oslo-listed energy data company TGS announced it has secured a large, high-end 4D towed streamer seismic data acquisition contract offshore Angola. The project is scheduled to commence acquisition operations in early July 2026, with a contract duration of approximately eight months.

TGS CEO Kristian Johansen commented: "We are very pleased with the award of this contract, which solidifies TGS's strategic position in the Africa region and provides us with early visibility for one vessel's operations into the first quarter of 2027. This contract further highlights our continued commitment to delivering the highest quality data solutions to our clients. With our advanced Ramform acquisition platform, combined with our proprietary multi-sensor GeoStreamer technology, TGS is well-positioned to deliver results that meet the evolving needs of the energy industry."

This 4D streamer contract is a high-end seismic data acquisition project and will be executed using one of TGS's specialized Ramform series seismic survey vessels. 4D seismic acquisition technology, by repeating surveys over the same area at different times, effectively monitors dynamic changes in oil and gas reservoirs, providing data support for energy companies in formulating development strategies. The Ramform platform is renowned for its wide-body design and towing capacity, capable of towing up to 24 streamers simultaneously. Combined with GeoStreamer multi-sensor broadband technology, it can achieve higher-resolution subsurface imaging results.

The previous week, TGS had already secured two contracts in the Norwegian North Sea, including a 4D streamer project utilizing a Ramform Titan-class vessel and an Ocean Bottom Node (OBN) contract. The finalization of this Angola contract further strengthens TGS's business footprint in the African region.
