Industry News - E&P Hotline - CGG starts work on Crazy Horse discoveryCGG starts work on Crazy Horse discovery by: OilOnline Friday, September 28, 2001
BP America has awarded CGG a contract to perform a high-resolution 3D survey
over its
Crazy Horse discovery in the deep water Mississippi Canyon area of the US
Gulf of Mexico. The Crazy Horse discovery is claimed to be the largest field
drilled to date in the Gulf of
Mexico.
The work is being performed on a proprietary basis for BP America and joint
working interest owner, ExxonMobil. Although BP already has licenses to
existing 3D datasets over the discovery area, the company wishes to acquire
higher resolution data specifically targeted to map the complex, largely
subsalt reservoirs and their associated geology.
