BERGEN, Norway – Eni has contracted Shearwater to conduct a 3D multiple technology integrated geophysical survey over a carbon storage site in Liverpool Bay, offshore northwest England, with options for a second survey.
The campaigns will involve bathymetric and 3D seismic surveys, designed to deliver high-resolution imaging of the overburden, and high-resolution data for analysis of the seabed and shallow geology, with a shallow-water seismic node crew supporting operations in the shallow-water areas.
Shearwater’s SW Bly vessel will perform the initial survey over the Hamilton and North Hamilton fields, and the optional survey over the Lennox field. Each should take around a month to complete.
All three fields are covered by a carbon dioxide (CO2) appraisal and storage license: Eni intends to re-use and re-purpose the depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs and associated infrastructure to permanently store CO2 emissions captured from local industries and planned production sites of low-carbon hydrogen in northwest England and north Wales.
