TDI-Brooks to undertake Timor-Leste surveys

The programme will provide data to support the routing of the Gas Export Pipeline from the Greater Sunrise field to Natarbora on the south coast of Timor-Leste, as well as the Bayu-Undan Pipeline Highway to Natarbora.

The survey will utilize TDI-Brooks’ DP2 vessel Nautilus, and will undertaken in partnership with Taka Hydrocore Indonesia.

The geotechnical scope will include approximately 508 seabed tests, consisting of gravity CPTs, piston cores, box cores, and cyclic T-bar measurements.

In parallel, an environmental baseline study will cover 16 provisional stations, including the collection of 40 sediment samples and 40 water samples.

Field operations for both the geotechnical and environmental scopes are scheduled to commence in mid-January 2027.
