TDI-Brooks completes surveys for Total off Côte d’Ivoire

TDI-Brooks International, together with French environmental firm Créocéan and Benthic Solutions, has completed an environmental baseline studies (EBS) survey for Total E&P Côte d’Ivoire.

The research vessel Proteus was deployed to blocks CI-705 and CI-706 to conduct seawater sampling and profiling as well as plankton sampling at seven stations, sediment sampling at 45 stations, and live feed benthic video sled at 24 transects.

The two blocks cover an area of approximately 3,200 square kilometres, and present multi-target hydrocarbon prospects in water depths ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 metres.
