Brazil Pre-Salt​

TGS Hotspots

  • Over 80,000 MMboe produced from post-salt and pre-salt in the last two decades, and not yet atpeak.​
  • Brazil’s fourth-cycle Open Acreage Permanent Offer (OPP) round offers 23 high-potential pre-salt blocks in Campos and Santos.​
  • High-impact discoveries upcoming well at Agua Marinha building fresh interest in the neighborhood.​

Campos and Santos remain among the most productive basins in the world, and TGS holds extensive 2D and 3D coverage across the blocks on offer. Our Picanha 3D paired with modern FWI reprocessed Santos Vision 3D, deliver velocity models and subsurface imaging explorers need to identify opportunities and reduce risk ahead of the October 7, 2026 bid round​

  • Campos Basin & Espirito Santo 3D Seismic: ~90,000 km² — covering all blocks in the Permanent Offer  ​
    • Campos Deepwater Program: 15,600 km² of new GeoStreamer north-south azimuth acquisition  and 8,200 km² of GeoStreamer X multi-azimuth data 
    • Campos 3D: 14,112 km2. SW-NE acquisition completed in 2021
    • Picanha 3D (Phase 2, Phase 3, Phase 5): 81,790 km2 ​
  • Santos Basin​ 3D Seismic: ~115,000 km² — covering most blocks in the Permanent Offer  ​
    • Santos Phase I–IV: 25,500 km² of new 3D seismic data. Processing complete in 2022 ​
    • Picanha 3D (Phase 1, Phase 6, Phase 7) : 71,500 km² of reprocessed 3D seismic data  ​
    • Santos Vision 3D: 48,898 km2 or FWI velocity model reprocessing ​
    • Santos Sul: 12,300 km² of new GeoStreamer triple-source 3D seismic data ​
