Friburge Oil & Gas Fendercare Marine is delighted to be working alongside Friburge Oil & Gas – Angola’s first locally owned gas and oil service provider – in a new, unincorporated joint venture. Sharing their extensive experience and global resources offers enormous potential for Fendercare and Friburge to expand their opportunities and footprint within the industry.
Motivated to find innovative methods that promote safer environmental standards, supported by a commitment to safety and an exceptional level of operational standards the partnership
of Fendercare and Friburge creates a potential industry leader in Africa.
Within this new partnership, Fendercare and Friburge will immediately provide the following services to the Angolan market:

CGG Awarded Barents Sea Imaging Contract by Lundin Energy Norway
CGG has been awarded a major project by Lundin Energy Norway AS for the seismic imaging of an innovative simultaneous node and streamer 3D survey currently being acquired over a 3700 km2 area of the Nordkapp basin in the Barents Sea.
The survey combines TopSeis™, the source-over-spread seismic technology developed by CGG in collaboration with Lundin, with the deployment of sparse ocean-bottom nodes. This configuration is designed to obtain a high-definition image of the sedimentary basins and accurately image the numerous salt flanks to improve the understanding of trap mechanisms, deformation and faulting near salt-sediment interfaces.
Capitalizing on CGG’s unrivalled experience in both TopSeis and OBN imaging, this high-end data will be processed at CGG’s Massy subsurface imaging center in France where its industry-leading proprietary velocity model building and depth imaging technologies, including CGG’s time- lag full-waveform inversion and full-waveform inversion imaging, will be deployed to derive an extremely accurate velocity model and ensure the best possible imaging results.
Peter Whiting, SVP, Geoscience, EAME, CGG, said: “This award builds on CGG’s successful technical partnership with Lundin which has spearheaded the development of several revolutionary new imaging concepts to address Lundin’s specific geological challenges. We look forward to delivering the high-definition images from this new survey that will provide an enhanced understanding of the complex geology of the Nordkapp Basin and enable Lundin to operate more efficiently and safely.”
