Polarcus Adira is in transit from Las Palmas to the US Gulf of Mexico to commence a six month charter for TGS. The purpose-built 3D seismic vessel is equipped with specialized, advanced maritime technology to minimize the environmental footprint of the operation and the vessel continues to set new standards for the industry, having been awarded the highest achievable Triple-E(TM) environmental and energy efficiency rating by DNV-GL, the world's leading ship and maritime classification society.

Commenting on the charter, Rolf Ronningen, CEO Polarcus said: "This will be our first project in the US; the first of many we anticipate in the years ahead. We are especially excited to have this opportunity to demonstrate our capabilities within this important market and we look forward to bringing our unique environmental agenda to the US Gulf and to delivering TGS a very high quality dataset for their multi-client program."
