US-based oilfield services company Schlumberger has partnered with Seitel to reimage and acquire new geophysical data in key areas across onshore Mexico.
As part of the alliance, the parties will reimage around 25,000km of 2D seismic data from Mexico’s National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) data library, which covers lease blocks in the current round two bid, as well as future onshore lease round blocks.

In addition, new multiclient data acquisition projects are already in development.
Schlumberger WesternGeco president Maurice Nessim said: “The areas for reimaging were strategically selected to deliver regional analysis of the prospective plays across onshore Mexico with both organisations using high-end processing workflows.
“This alliance capitalises on each organisation’s strong commitment to Mexico exploration over some of the largest onshore Mexico fields, including the onshore Cuenca del Sureste Basin, which shares many hydrocarbon system elements with the prolific Pilar Reforma-Akal in the shallow water Campeche area.”
According to Schlumberger, the newly reprocessed seismic data and any new acquisition projects will offer subsurface images of proven oil and gas reservoirs in the Sabina-Burgos, Tampico-Misantla, Veracruz and Sureste areas, in addition to the Chihuahua province, and other strategic areas.
