Gambia: Polarcus to acquire 3D seismic for CAMAC

Houston-based CAMAC Energy has awarded a contract for the acquisition of a 3D seismic survey to Polarcus. The survey will cover approximately 1,504km2 in the A2 and A5 blocks in the offshore Casamance sub-basin, which forms the southern part of the greater Senegal Basin. “The southern area, including blocks A2 and A5, now has a proven petroleum system in place due to two recent discovery wells on an adjacent offshore Senegal block,” CAMAC said. The company said Cairn Energy’s recent Fan-1 and SNE-1 discoveries were on trend with its blocks.
