Summary
In 2025 a 3D multiclient survey was acquired and imaged in an exploration setting offshore Angola where no 3D legacy imaging existed. Spanning blocks 33, 49, and 50, with a total survey area of 8726 km², the project was designed to address the complex subsurface challenges associated with salt structures by using advanced acquisition technology (multi-sensor streamers and low frequency sources) in a one-sided WAZ streamer configuration (Figure 1) while deploying modern earth model building technology such as elastic Full Waveform Inversion (FWI).
