EMGS Today

Leading marine controlled-source electromagnetic service provider

HQ: Trondheim

Global reach: Oslo, Trondheim, Houston, Rio de Janeiro, Kuala Lumpur, Mexico City and Mumbai

Dedicated staff: 120 full time employees

Introduction to the technology and application

Marine EM / CSEM method

Passive source (MT) Natural EM field generated by the interaction of solar wind with the Magnetosphere

Active source (CSEM)

Horizontal electric dipole (HED)

Multi-component EM seabed receiver Electric and magnetic field sensors

Result

Integrated interpretation of seismic and EM improves exploration outcomes and reduces risk

+ - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + -

Acquisition Water depth ~ 10 – 3500m

CSEM sensitivity Typically 0 – 4,500 m BML (depending of size of target)

MT sensitivity 0 – 15,000m BML

Pingvin: Well prediction by EMGS (2014)

Pingvin: Well result

Area 1: seismic AVO and CSEM anomaly Area 2: seismic AVO and no CSEM anomaly

Well result (drilled at border between 1 and 2): gas water contact in transition zone, discovery of 15m gas

Well Predictions and Portfolio analysis in 2017

  • Various correct predictions in 2017 based on CSEM data: Filicudi, Kayak, Gemini North, Korpfjell
  • One incorrect prediction in 2017 based on CSEM data (but limited access to seismic data): Blåmann (small gas discovery).
  • Polarizing an oil company's prospect portfolio provides for improved decision making and the potential to increase the return on investment

Our vision is to make CSEM an integral part

of the

Exploration and Production workflow

Extending the same practice elsewhere..

CSEM now counts as work units in:

  • Mexico
  • Brazil
  • Uruguay
  • Argentina

Dialogues ongoing with other Lat-Am countries for possible inclusion ahead of bid-rounds.

Mexico & Brazil

  • CSEM counts as working units for the exploratory work programs
  • Multi-client data available for licensing in Mexico
  • Active acquition permits for Multi-client and proprietary CSEM acquistion

Argentina (new)

• CSEM will count as work units for new CSEM acquisition in association with upcoming bid rounds

Key Milestones

  • Well positioned to capitalise on the 24th round in Norway
  • Upward momentum regarding international opportunities to improve utilisation
  • Market expected to be more balanced between multi-client and proprietary going forward
  • Caution required as no significant change to backlog recorded
