This demonstrates that PEMEX values 3D CSEM data as an important and complementary input in their exploration workflow. We are confident that the 3D CSEM data EMGS will now acquire will help PEMEX identify, evaluate and de-risk prospects, thereby significantly contributing to their exploration efforts.
The contract is the fourth biggest in the history of the Norwegian company.
