OSLO, Norway — The joint venture between PGS, TGS and SLB has started a new multiclient 3D seismic project in the Penyu Basin offshore Peninsular Malaysia.

Ramform Sovereign sailed to the area in March and will acquire about 7,800 sq km of 3D data, finishing the program in July. Processing should be completed in June 2025.

The project, a collaboration with Malaysia Petroleum Management, is designed to define exploration opportunities across a broader play fairway and to assess the carbon storage potential across the Penyu Basin area.

Clients will be able to use the data in their applications for the upcoming Malaysia Bid Round.
