Shearwater Geoservices AS has been awarded a 3D seismic acquisition contract by Eni Timor 22-23 B.V. covering the PSC TL SO 22-23 area in the Timor Sea.

The scope comprises approximately 1,500 square kilometres. The project is scheduled to commence late in the first quarter of 2026, with the acquisition campaign expected to run for two months.

The survey will be carried out by Shearwater Geoservices AS’s high-capacity vessel SW Bly. The company will apply its advanced acquisition capabilities together with processing software to accelerate delivery of high-quality Decision Ready Data, provided directly from the vessel to the client.

Chief Executive Officer Irene Waage Basili said the award strengthens Shearwater Geoservices AS’s engagement with Eni Timor 22-23 B.V. and reflects confidence in the company’s execution platform, seismic technology and data quality. She added that delivering Decision Ready Data shortly after acquisition is intended to support timely and well-informed development decisions.
