 ION Geophysical Corporation NYSE: IO today announced the first 3D multi-client program in Mauritania in partnership with the Ministry of Petroleum, Mines and Energy MPME. ION will seamlessly integrate and reimage 24,000 sq km of MPME-held 3D data and can expand the scope to include 15,000 km of 2D data pending industry support. Leveraging the Companys latest technology and extensive reimaging experience, ION aims to significantly enhance the datas resolution and subsurface insights. The 3D volume has applications across the EP lifecycle, helping reduce risk at play, prospect and reservoir scales. ION expects the program to commence in 2020 with final deliverables available in mid-2021.
