This latest MC3D Kwanza Shelf acquisition complements the project carried out in 2019. These datasets will provide key data for the Angolan 2021 License Round. A fast-track dataset is now available for viewing.

The present-day shelf of the Kwanza Basin has been overlooked in previous exploration cycles. The combination of 3D GeoStreamer technology with modern imaging techniques is expected to unlock plays in shallow Kwanza Shelf open blocks.

Shallow-water environments such as the Kwanza Shelf can present imaging challenges. These are being resolved in this survey with enhanced processing flows such as FWI and SWIM enabled by high-quality GeoStreamer 3D broadband data.

High-density GeoStreamer acquisition combined with the latest processing and imaging technology will provide a detailed view of the hydrocarbon potential of the Kwanza Shelf area, enabling lead and prospect generation, attribute analysis, and reservoir-scale evaluations.

Fast-track data from the Kwanza Shelf MultiClient 3D GeoStreamer survey is now available for viewing.
