Seaforth
Engineering Group Inc. was contracted by GEMS (Geophysical Engineering
& Marine Surveys) to provide Maritime Boundary consultancy for their
UNCLOS seismic reflection survey for the National Oceanographic Institute
of Pakistan (NOIP). Seaforth deployed both a geophysicist and a
hydrographer on board the MV Geo Searcher, owned by SCAN Geophysical ASA, Norway). Seaforth was responsible for providing
scientific advice on the analysis of the seismic survey in support of the
Submission to be made by Pakistan
to the UN Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (UNCLCS).
Seaforth
has had considerable experience in providing UNCLOS consultancy on all
three phases of a submission process.
This includes the desktop study phase, the data acquisition and
analysis phase, and the final submission phase. For this particular operation the
on-board element of the Seaforth activity was to provide advice and
guidance for the successful conduct of the survey. The survey included several weeks of
data acquisition and is to be followed by a post cruise process.
