French fully integrated geoscience company CGG announced Wednesday it has completed processing of the Bade FALCON? Airborne Gravity Gradiometer (AGG) multi-client survey it recently conducted within the Papua Foreland Basin.

CGG said it acquired over 28,000 km2 of FALCON AGG data over onshore PSC, JSA and open acreage in a highly underexplored region of West Papua along trend from multi-TCF gas fields and recent oil discoveries in Papua New Guinea.

The FALCON system measures minute changes in the Earth's gravity to high accuracy and high spatial resolution using both helicopter and fixed-wing platforms. Falcon AGG is the highest-resolution, lowest instrument noise gravity gradiometer in production today and is unique in having been specifically designed for airborne activity, the company claimed.
