Bergen Oilfield Extends Positioning Contract
Veripos has been awarded an extension to its existing master services contract with Bergen Oilfield Services (BOS), one of Norway's principal seismic survey contractors operating worldwide. The extended contract covers continuing supply of a complete range of positioning services and equipment for BOS's three specialist seismic exploration vessels, BOS Angler, BOS Arctic and BOS Atlantic.
Utilising Veripos' Ultra Precise Point Positioning service for decimetre-level accuracies supported by Verify-QC software for real-time monitoring and quality control of positioning data, each vessel is also equipped with Veripos LD2-G2 integrated mobile receiver systems.
Supported by Veripos GNSS positioning, BOS has recently completed a 10,000km 2D seismic data acquisition program offshore Guinea, northwest Africa on behalf of Hyperdynamics Corporation. Meanwhile, the Norwegian company's BOS Angler vessel is due to carry out major 3D surveys for ONGC and Cairn off the east and west coasts of India.
