FAR Commences Seismic Acquisition Activity Offshore Senegal

The MV Symphony seismic vessel has commenced acquiring seismic for First Australian Resources Offshore Senegal. The survey will be the largest 3D survey conducted Offshore Senegal as part of a world class exploration program being conducted by FAR and Operator, Hunt Oil Company.

Both Hunt and FAR are sharing the MV Symphony seismic vessel with the Italian group Edison and have applied savings that will result from sharing the mobilisation costs towardextending the 3D coverage by 50 km2. The increased survey area comprising a total of 2,050 km2 will now include prospect C1, in the southwest corner of the Sangomar Offshore block.Integrating C-1 into the overall 3D grid offers significant advantages compared to reprocessing old Shell seismic data over this prospect.
