Northwest Africa

Northwest Africa

Northwest Africa has been the shining light of African exploration. That light was cast upon the region through world-class discoveries in Senegal and Mauritania.

TGS offers 2D and 3D seismic in continuous coverage from MSGBC to Liberia, with supporting MBSS geochemistry, and continues to prove a working hydrocarbon system here.

West Africa Transform

West African Transform

The West African Transform Margin (WATM) stretches from Sierra Leone in the west to Benin in the east.

What was once frontier territory for oil and gas exploration has had some of the most exciting discoveries in recent years.
