China Oilfield Services Limited (COSL), a Chinese offshore services provider, has completed its first exploration operation in the Far East.

COSL informed in early June it won a seismic acquisition contract in the “Far East” but did not reveal the name of the client nor the exact location of the survey.

The company used the Hai Yan Shi You 718 seismic vessel for the project that started in late June.

COSL said on Thursday, August 4, 2016, that the operation situation was ‘complicated’, including the complex fishery and year-round foggy weather.

Also, operating in the shallow water zone is a threat to the underwater equipment, the company noted.

The operation was, according to the company, completed safely.
