These areas were selected after consultation with industry.
2016-2017 Government Seismic Acquisition and Processing Programme
A separate ITT for legacy seismic data reprocessing will be issued in due course.
This follows the successful seismic survey of the Rockall Trough and Mid-North Sea High areas completed in 2015. The project delivered approximately 40,000 km of new and legacy data which was published under the Open Government Licence and available for download on 31st March 2016 from UK Oil and Gas
In addition, in line with the recently issued OGA Corporate Plan, three separate ITTs are open for regional and field support engineering services, subsurface studies and reservoir evaluation services and geoscience project services. These contracts will replace the current Oil & Gas Maximising Recovery Programme (OGMRP) contracts and will be three years in duration.
