PETRONAS Carigali will soon begin a seismic survey over the Ml field offshore Sarawak, where the company plans to use depleted reservoirs to store the carbon dioxide from its Kasawari carbon capture and storage project. Malaysia's national upstream company will acquire a 3D-4C (three dimensional, four compartment) ocean bottom node (OBN) seismic survey over the Ml field. The Malaysian Coast Guard said that Seabird Exploration's survey vessel Eagle Explorer has been lined up for this shoot. The Oslo-listed seismic contractor did not name Petronas as its client, simply stating it had signed "an OBN source contract for the Eagle Explorer in the eastern hemisphere". The contract, which is expected to take around two months including mobilisation, will start in June in direct continuation of the vessel's current 2D seismic shoot.
