With this RFQ, EBN seeks to identify several technically capable seismic processing contractors through a pre-qualification tender. Any contractor that passes this pre-qualification will join a list of approved suppliers and EBN aims to sign a framework agreement with each of these contractors with a zero-hour work commitment. If EBN requires seismic processing services, all approved suppliers will be invited in a ‘mini-tender’ to bid on a specific work package for either processing newly acquired 2D data or 2D or 3D reprocessing projects.
While in some onshore areas the Dutch subsurface data availability is good, there are still significant areas in the Netherlands with relatively poor data coverage. In these onshore areas, effective and economically feasible development of geothermal projects is not possible under the current circumstances. In this context, EBN has been asked to embark on a seismic geothermal exploration program (SCAN = Seismische Campagne Aardwarmte Nederland), which will comprise of the reprocessing of vintage data as well as the acquisition of new 2D seismic data.
As part of the SCAN project, EBN plans to acquire long-offset, high density 2D land seismic data, in areas (Areas A to I) where current data availability is relatively poor. During SCAN, it is anticipated that some 2 500 km of 2D seismic will be acquired between 2019 and 2023. It is the plan that the data will be processed as it becomes available, so rather than having all data available at once, the data will be processed per line (or per set of lines). In addition to any newly acquired 2D data, the scope of this processing framework agreement shall also include 2D land vintage data reprocessing.
