The survey will be conducted in September using the purpose-built 3D EM vessel BOA Thalassa.
Frigg was the world's largest and deepest offshore gas field when it was discovered in 1971. Field production ended in October 2004, and the decommissioning activity is expected to be finalised soon. The license is operated by TOTAL.
The objective of the EM work programme is to develop a better understanding of the reservoir as of today. The Clearplay Evaluate 3D EM data will be acquired in an area of 100 km2 and in water depths of approximately 100 meters using densely sampled, wide-azimuth 3D EM grids.
