TGS announces the expansion of multi-client 2D surveys offshore Eastern Canada with plans to acquire more than 30,000 km of seismic data, in partnership with PGS, utilizing two vessels during the 2014 acquisition season.

The M/V Sanco Spirit, utilizing the PGS GeoStreamer® technology, will acquire seismic and gravity data in the Labrador Sea and Northeast Newfoundland-Flemish Pass areas. Data acquisition will commence during June 2014.

This project will provide valuable data covering expected Areas of Interest (AOIs) to be released by Canada's Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB) as part of the new land tenure system announced to the industry on 19 December 2013.
