HOUSTON ā€“ TGS and PGS have released final 3D seismic data results from their Torngat survey offshore Labrador.

The survey covers an area of around 3,300Ā sq km (1,274 sq mi) in the Chidley basin and includes sections of open acreage offered in the Labrador South November 2021 bid round.

The area is within the Labrador Seaā€™s southern sedimentary basins where previous exploration identified hydrocarbons via the nearby Hopedale and Snorri discoveries.

Will Ashby, executive vice president of North America at TGS, said: ā€œTorngat, the first 3D survey acquired offshore Labrador, willā€¦be instrumental in assessing several amplitude variations supported leads that were initially evaluated with our comprehensive 2D library in this region.

ā€œOur Labrador Sea seismic library is complemented by TGS well data, a regional crustal study, and basin-wide interpretation.ā€
