"We are pleased to see late sales of completed multi-client data in Q1 2024

showing good progress both compared to the preceding quarter and the same

quarter of last year. Further, we saw strong sales of surveys in the work-in-

progress phase, supporting the early sales rate of approximately 116% in the

quarter. We continue to show good operating performance in our OBN business,

although the activity level, as expected, remained seasonally low in Q1 2024.

The strong start to the year, combined with a continued tight global oil market

and increasing exploration ambitions among our customers makes me optimistic for

the remainder of the year. With the PGS merger, which we expect to close on or

around 1 July 2024, TGS will be perfectly positioned to support our customers'

exploration ambitions and capitalize on what we think will be a multi-year

upcycle," says Kristian Johansen, CEO of TGS.
