Pelotas Basin - Uruguay - 2012 - 2013

Uruguay 3D GeoStreamer®

A new and exciting frontier.

Marine shales in the drift section can be invoked as potential top seals in light of the absence of a regional salt layer in the offshore basins.
GeoStreamer® is more than proving its ability to provide fully imaged broadband data in harsh operating conditions. Seaward dipping reflectors and Turonian source sequences consistent with those mapped on the Brazilian side of the border with DHI’s in the form of seeps also identified.
