Transportadora de Gas del Sur SA (TGS) has entered into a strategic agreement with the Republic of Equatorial Guinea to acquire, process, and promote seismic and geophysical data across the nation's offshore basins.

The agreement includes the reprocessing of historical seismic datasets as well as the acquisition of new data, with the goal of enhancing the understanding of subsurface structures and supporting exploration activities in the region.

Under the terms of the agreement, TGS will apply its imaging technology to reimage historical datasets from various periods and deliver an integrated approach combining seismic acquisition, processing, and interpretation.

Through this agreement, TGS will be able to provide a comprehensive data framework that includes localized, regional, and basin-wide datasets obtained via the MegaSurvey method. This will support more efficient prospect, play, and basin evaluations.

Additionally, operators in the region will benefit from data produced by reprocessing original field tapes using TGS's advanced imaging technologies, which are designed to overcome existing subsurface imaging challenges.

The agreement also involves the acquisition of new broadband seismic data using GeoStreamer multi-sensor technology, aimed at improving imaging quality and enabling more accurate subsurface characterization.

The collaboration is expected to support exploration and production activities, including efforts to reduce petroleum system risks in the Rio Del Rey and Rio Muni basins through the creation of continuous datasets for basin analysis.
