TGS has been awarded a contract to survey ultra-high-resolution ocean floor nodes (OBNs) in the Gulf of Mexico. This operation is scheduled to start in June 2026 employing a crew specialized in deep-sea environments.
The execution and survey of ultra-resolution submarine nodes
It is essential to mention that this achievement is possible, thanks to the result of a sustained collaboration over time with its main customers. According to Kristian Johansen, CEO of the firm, this agreement allows for a much more efficient prospecting design. By working under a long-term framework, planning time is reduced and the immediate availability of the necessary equipment for data capture is guaranteed.
The execution of this project will fall to the same technical team that has previously operated in the region. This decision seeks to maintain a consistent line of work under the strictest health, safety and environmental standards. Likewise, the implementation of ultra-high-resolution underwater sensors will allow obtaining an image of the subsoil with greater sharpness than the c methods.
TGS continues to establish itself as an energy intelligence provider that provides solutions across the value chain. The use of seabed technology in this new contract facilitates critical decision-making for resource production. The company’s vast data library and ability to adapt to the geological challenges of the Gulf of Mexico position it as an indispensable partner for operators looking to optimize their exploration and production investments.
