New 2008 OBS
Studies
During 2007 and 2008, NPA have added large
volumes of new data to our Global Offshore Seep Database
in a variety of basins across the world, as listed below.
For the remainder of 2008, NPA will continue to add new
data by screening several large areas, as indicated by the
yellow-shaded areas in our global coverage map. The focus
area will be in East Asia (Area 10), to provide 100% coverage
of China and Korea waters
and Arctic Russia (Area 8) with an initial
focus on the prospective Laptev Sea and the North Sakhalin
and Okhotsk Sea regions.
In parallel, NPA will be providing seep screening
projects for on-going or planned licencing rounds. To date,
NPA have compiled a number of licence-specific studies combining
existing and new data, as follows:
South America:
Mediterranean:
Africa:
Middle East:
Australasia:
Arctic:
Further information can be found on the global
catalogue pages, or directly from the NPA OBS team.

to the database are (from west to east):
- Alaska North Slope and Beaufort Sea.
