3D seismic depth data is now ready on the PGS FSB Vision rejuvenation project targeting the prolific West of Shetland petroleum exploration and production area.

“This an excellent product for anyone evaluating new potential West of Shetland. The simultaneous inversion of refractions and reflection within FWI has delivered a detailed and conformable velocity model and dramatically improved the final data quality,” says Sónia Pereira, VP Data Sales Europe at PGS.

The Faroes Shetland Basin area is characterized by a complex structural and geological history, which gives rise to multiple petroleum plays but also creates several features obstructing subsurface imaging based on reflection seismic data.

The evaluation of these plays will benefit from access to FSB Vision data, which has been created by merging and broadband reprocessing conventional and GeoStreamer 3D seismic surveys using state-of-the-art workflows.
