An optimal seismic signal penetration at low frequencies is necessary either for shallow or deep targets, while the preservation of highest possible frequencies is required to improve the interpretation of architectural elements for all likely targets.<\/p>\n<p>This implies to preserve the lowest possible frequencies while preserving the high frequencies of the seismic spectrum. The dataset shall also be AVO compliant (full reliability of amplitude variation with offsets).<\/p>\n<p>INP adds it wishes to also acquire modern high quality potential field data, Controlled Source Electromagnetic Data and Drop Core to help in the determination of the hydrocarbon potential of defined onshore and offshore areas.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mozambique-Multiclient-Map.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4824 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mozambique-Multiclient-Map.png?resize=512%2C636&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mozambique Multiclient Map\" width=\"512\" height=\"636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mozambique-Multiclient-Map.png?w=512&amp;ssl=1 512w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mozambique-Multiclient-Map.png?resize=81%2C100&amp;ssl=1 81w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mozambique-Multiclient-Map.png?resize=242%2C300&amp;ssl=1 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a>T1 Offshore Rovuma Basin<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Minimum of 5000 km of seismic 2D seismic data<\/li>\n<li>Bathymetric<\/li>\n<li>Marine gravity &amp;
