In Australia, Drillsearch Energy Limited awarded WesternGeco more than 1,500 km2 of acquisition and processing using UniQ integrated point-receiver land seismic technology in the Cooper-Eromanga Basin. In a second win for the UniQ system, Hess Corporation also awarded WesternGeco over 2,000 km2 of 2D data acquisition and processing in the Beetaloo Basin of the Northern Territory.
