4 Client Details, Area and Size of Surveys

Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA (EMGS) have agreed that EMGS shall acquire MT and CSEM data for
Petronas offshore Suriname.

The survey is planned to be performed with the survey vessel M/V Atlantic Guardian. Detailed Survey Layout
Sheets (SLS) will be issued individually for each survey. The program consists of two surveys with a planned
duration of ~60 days. The offshore and onshore organization of the operations is outlined in chapter 12 of this
plan. The survey will be performed the Conventional Source.

Please refer to the Survey Layout Sheets (SLS) that will be created for each of the locations for survey
planning.
4.1 Survey Location
The northern most point of the MT survey area is approximately 435 km from Paramaribo, the capital of
Suriname.
4.2 Permit Area
The survey area covers block 42, 45, 47, 48, 52, 53, 59 and 62 offshore Suriname.
4.3 Surveys
4.3.1 2DMTCSEM18 SLS01
4.3.2 2DMTCSEM18 SLS02
4.4 Pre-Survey Planning
The activity in and around the field is taken into account when planning and performing the survey.

Obstructions and activities in the area are sourced through the Client and publicly available data and built on
EMGS internal experience and knowledge.

At the very start of the survey, an echo sounder profile is obtained along the receiver line and towing routes.
During the acquisition of the echo sounder data a general scouting of the area is done, and the information
gathered reviewed to optimize the operation in general. This includes evaluation of obstructions such as the
fishing activity.

Local requirements, rules and regulations are taken into consideration during the survey planning through the
permit application process.

4.5 Incident Reports

EMGS is to report all incidents immediately after such occur. All incidents are reported within EMGS’ own
HSE management system called GEMS.

All incidents and near misses will be reported to the EMGS Client and to the on-board maritime management
in a timely manner. This also means that the Client shall be notified immediately of any significant situation or
significant event to include the loss of life, a missing person, serious injury to a person, fire on board, oil spill,
and any threat to personnel.

Incidents will also be reported through the daily report to the client.

7.1 Survey Objectives

EMGS’ main objective is to complete any survey without causing harm to people or the environment which is
aligned with EMGS HSE Objectives, Goal Zero with no harm to people, no damage to the environment and no
loss of tangible assets.

7.2 Orientation Program

At the start of the project, a project safety meeting shall be held for all personal to explain the nature of the
project, general health and safety onboard the vessel, company HSE policies, including drugs and alcohol,
any site-specific hazards. A copy of the Project Safety Plan shall be reviewed with all personnel and they shall
be required to read and sign stating that they understand the contents of the documents.

7.2.1 Vessel Safety Induction

It is EMGS’ policy that ALL personnel joining a vessel, whether owned or chartered by the company, shall
receive a Safety Induction at the earliest opportunity and within 24 hours after arrival.

The safety induction will cover all aspects of safety management onboard including:

(i) Layout of the vessel, including location and operation of safety equipment, first aid kits, alarm points
and muster stations.

(ii) Explanation of emergency alarms, procedures and safety regulations.

(iii) Explanation of ship’s Muster List (Station Bill) and its location.

(iv) Location of life jackets and any personal escape equipment (smoke hood, torch, etc.) provided.

(v) Company policy on health and safety and an introduction to all relevant manuals, documents and
where they may be found.

(vi) An explanation of working practices including the use of personal safety equipment, Job Safety
Analysis and the Permit to Work systems.

(vii) A description of the vessel, areas of authorized access, unauthorized areas (if any).

(viii) The process and importance of reporting of incidents or accidents however minor.

(ix) An Introduction to personnel responsible for implementation of Health and Safety Policy and
procedures onboard.

(x) Employees have the right to stop unsafe acts and correct unsafe conditions. Employees also have
the right to refuse to work if conditions are not safe.

(xi) Completion of a safety questionnaire to ensure an understanding of policy and procedures covered.
7.3 HSE Meeting Structure
General safety meetings shall be held weekly. All personnel are encouraged to contribute to the meeting.
Minutes are to be recorded and reported.

7.4 HSE Awareness Programs

At the start of the project, a project safety meeting will be held. This meeting shall be held for all personnel to
explain the nature of the project, general health and safety onboard the vessel, the emergency response plan
and project priorities. At the conclusion of the meeting and prior to vessel setting sail for the survey area, a
copy of the Project Safety Plan shall be issued, and all personnel shall be required to read and signoff that
one has read and understands the PSP.

An All Crew Safety meeting and HSE induction program will be conducted. The HSE induction program
encompasses the following aspects for newly reporting personnel.

Vessel familiarization tour

Back deck familiarization for survey crew

The above-mentioned courses and meetings is also a requirement for the on-going crew after the crew
change.

7.5 Risk Assessment Tools

Project Specific Risk Assessment

Prior to survey start the project specific risk assessment will be reviewed with EMGS and NSS Offshore
Management together with EMGS QHSE, EMGS onshore operations & NSS onshore operations.

Toolbox Meetings

Toolbox meetings are to be conducted on the bridge before each task. The group involved in the operation
will discuss the nature of the operation itself, and exactly what the task implies. Tool box meetings are a
requirement for all operations where there is a potential risk of injury or damage to equipment through for
team communication and poor environmental assessment. Typical operations will include the
deployment/recovery of receivers and source dual electrodes, working adjacent to the vessels edge, working
at height, and entry to confined spaces, electrical and welding work. Some of these operations will also be
complimented by the Permit to Work System. A Job Safety Analysis will be conducted or reviewed at the
toolbox meeting. Minutes of the Toolbox meeting will be recorded and kept onboard.

Job Safety Analysis

A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is essentially the assessment of work activities and the workplace to establish
whether adequate precautions are in place. In other words, the systematic identification of potential hazards
in the workplace as a step to controlling the possible risks involved. Job Safety Analysis has been developed
for this purpose and should be used for each new task before the task is carried out.

The JSA is most effective when the Supervisor and the people who will actually conduct the task develop it
together. The supervisor should start by asking the group involved in the operation, how can a person get hurt
doing this task? The safety concerns recognized are recorded on the JSA form. This process continues until
all possible hazards have been listed. The next step is to go back to the safety concerns and find ways to
prevent possible accidents from happening. Each suggestion will be evaluated and recorded on the JSA
form.
The following Guide to Job Safety Analysis (JSA) was developed for geophysical operations; the purpose of
the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is to provide workers with a mental self-assessment process to identify and
eliminate hazards. This process consists of workers asking themselves key questions about the task or job
they are about to perform and periodically during the execution of that task. Personnel should take a few
minutes to assess the immediate task ahead, including the work area and surroundings for items, other
personnel, etc. that could present or introduce hazards to the task. Upon completion of the task, a JSA review
should be performed to assess the manner in which the task was carried out.

Before beginning a new task, the following JSA steps should be taken:

1. Think about the job that you’re about to undertake. Take a brief mental step-by-step review of the job
or task about to be performed.

2. Look Around and review the work area and surroundings. This will often necessitate physically
moving away from the work area to gain a broader perspective of your surroundings. Ask the following
question.

- Is the work area safe?

- Will my work endanger others?

- Will other people in the area pose risk(s) to me?

3. Assess the Risk of the planned job activities. Identify any potentially hazardous situations and/or
conditions. Specific questions to ask include:

- Do I clearly understand the task or work to be performed?

- Do I have the right tools? Are the tools in good working condition? Proper PPE?

- Will lifting be required? Do I need a lifting device or additional help?

- Is there the potential for slips, trips, or falls? Is work area free of obstacles/clutter?

- Are there sharp and/or protruding objects in the work area?

- Are there electrical devices and/or cables that could cause an electrical shock?

- What could go wrong? How could I or others get hurt?

4. Control Risks by first finding ways to eliminate identified potential hazards. If a hazard cannot be
totally eliminated, then identify ways to reduce the likelihood of the hazard causing an incident. If a
hazard cannot be eliminated or reduced satisfactory, and could still potentially to lead to an incident, and
then look for ways to reduce or mitigate the consequences of the incident. Questions to ask include:

- What must I do to control (eliminate/reduce/mitigate) hazards and hazardous conditions?

- Are written work procedures and/or Job Safety Analysis (JSA) needed for the job?

- Do I have the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)?

- Are there emergency response plans in place? Do I understand these plans?

- Is there a need to coordinate actions with other personnel working in the area or nearby?

5. Begin/Resume Work by satisfying yourself if that all hazards are appropriately controlled.

Periodically, during the performance of a job or task, personnel should pause and reassess the hazards
and risks associated with the job being performed. One should ask themselves the following questions:
 - Do I feel safe?

- Have conditions changed?

- Am I performing the job in the safest practical manner?

- Are others around me working safely?

If the answer to any of these questions is “no”, then go back through the steps above.

6. At the completion of a task, personnel should take the following steps:

- Review the job process and investigate the work area.

- Take actions necessary to control any hazards that might have been created as a result of the job.

- Identify improvements that could be made to your process.

Communicate any improvements to co-workers at the next workgroup meeting or, if warranted,
before.

7.6 Work Observation Program

All personnel are encouraged to observe each other’s actions at any time and act on those observations; for
example, speaking to a colleague observed working unsafely, discussing potential hazards and safety
concerns and taking corrective action as required.

It is important that ANYONE can stop any operation if they have any concerns about safety or feel that an
unsafe act or condition exists, either directly or by reporting the unsafe act/situation to the Operations
Manager or HSE Advisor.

Appropriate situations may include; a change of plan, an unscheduled event, incomplete understanding, an
observation with a safety impact, a need to pass on critical information to the job, the emergence of a
previously unidentified risk or hazard, or the need to ask for help.

7.7 Unsafe Act/Condition Reporting – the EMGS Report Card System

The EMGS Report Card has been developed to enable all personnel onboard to contribute to the Health &
Safety of the Vessel and the people on it. The system provides a “no blame” approach to anyone wishing to
highlight any of the following occurrences:

- NEAR MISSES

- UNSAFE ACTS

- UNSAFE CONDITIONS

- ANY SUBJECT/INCIDENT, WHICH MAY AFFECT THE GENERAL HEALTH 7 SAFETY OF THE SHIP

- SAFE ACTS/PRACTICES (Positive comments)

The purpose of the Report Card System is to PREVENT and RECTIFY any potential problems before
they cause serious injury or harm. Statistics indicate that there are approximately 500 unsafe acts for
every major incident (loss of life or permanent injury). By addressing these unsafe acts, we can reduce
the chance of a major incident occurring.
 Improvement Suggestions are used to improve on operations, vessel equipment, and safety conditions of
the vessel. Quality of life issues for the crew are also addressed with the use of improvement
suggestions.

Both Positive and Negative comments are requested. All points raised on the Report Cards will be
reviewed by management and any action necessary will be taken.

Everyone involved is expected and required to participate in this pro-active initiative in order to contribute
towards a safe working environment for all.

Report Cards will be placed in the dayroom of the vessel and once completed, should be placed in the
box provided or handed to the Offshore Manager, HSE Advisor or Vessel Master. Report Cards shall be
collated and vetted by the Offshore Manager and then passed to the HSE Advisor for follow-up, tracking
and closing out on the EMGS GEMS safety system.

7.8 Back Deck Operations

Back deck operations will be conducted in accordance with the procedures as outlined in Appendix 1. Toolbox
meetings will precede each operation and everyone working onboard an EMGS vessel has the obligation and
responsibility to stop unsafe acts as according to the One-step-back policy. The Offshore Manager is
responsible for all EMGS operations including the back deck operations; however, each crew member is
ultimately responsible and accountable for HSE.

7.9 Food Handling, Housekeeping, Offshore and Onshore Waste Disposal

The Captain of the vessel has the responsibility for overseeing HSE in regards with these categories with
reference to Health and Hygiene and onboard Waste Management in Appendix1.
8 Local Conditions

8.1 Weather and Sea Conditions

Suriname has a tropical climate with high humidity, abundant rainfall and a uniform temperature. Conditions
are influenced by movement of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), also known to sailors as the
doldrums. In this zone the north-east and south-east trade winds converge resulting in convective activity and
vigorous thunderstorms.

The location of the ITCZ results in the following wet and dry seasons:

- Minor rainy season early December to early February;

- Minor dry season early February to late April;

- Major rainy season late April to mid-August; and

- Major dry season from mid-August to early December.

Average daytime temperatures in the coastal regions is 27.4C with a daily variation of 5C.

Mean wind force is 1.3 Beaufort, with maximums of 1.6 Beaufort in Feb-Mar and 1.4 Beaufort in Sep-Oct.

The following indicators will be monitored closely:

- Weather forecast, wind and seas

- Wind force, present strength and direction

- Sea state, present wave height, period and direction

- Surface water on deck

- Hot weather, with associated hazards including mosquito bites, dehydration and sunburn.

On all toolbox meetings the weather conditions will be a subject and all personnel will have the right to refuse
to participate in any operation, if they feel it is unsafe.
The Matrix of Permitted Operations (MOPO) in Section 11.3 will be used as a guide in determining if weather
conditions are satisfactory for receiver operations. Any operation conducted outside the MOPO will require a
risk assessment to be completed and reviewed by all participants involved in the operations.

8.2 Military Activity

No planned military activity in the survey area.

8.3 Environmental Constrains

Weather, wind and seas as mentioned under section 8.1.

The currents in the survey area could influence the receiver deployment as well as EM source towing. The
currents information taken from “Windy.com” indicates that the strongest currents met in the project will be
north in the survey area.

The tidal effects in the survey area is moderate to low and should not cause any issues.

8.4 Obstructions and Offshore Activity

Obstructions in the survey area are defined as but not limited to fishery, oil and rig activity, military activity and
shipping lanes. Such information will be added to the Survey Layout Sheet (SLS) provided to the vessel for
each survey area.

8.5 Fishing Activity

Fishing vessels operating in Suriname waters are multi-species and multi-gear, with trawlers, snapper boats,
open or decked wooden vessels and canoes. The majority of the landing sites are in the capital since all
processing plants are located there.

Fisheries in Suriname can be broken into three sectors:

 Artisanal (small-scale, commercial) – Typically occurs in near-shore coastal waters, river mouths and
brackish waters (i.e. less than 10m depth). Operate in what is referred to as the Shallow Sea Zone
using drifting gillnetters, pin seiners and bottom long-liners.

 Industrial (large-scale, commercial) – Takes place in depths greater than 18m. Primarily fin fish and
shrimp using bottom trawlers and shrimp trawlers. Operate in what is referred to as the Deep Sea
Zone using bottom trawlers, shrimp trawlers mackerel hand-liners and large-pelagic long-liners.

 Subsistence – Carried out by locals to primarily feed family and relatives.

Fisheries techniques and operating depth zones can be summarized as follows:

 Shrimp trawling – 30 to 200m depth

 Fish trawling – 30 to 80m depth

 Snapper long-lining – 40 to 100m depth

  Seabob trawling – 20 to 40m depth

 Small scale fisheries – 0 to 20m depth

Removal of fishing gear using the MOB should only be used as the absolutely last resort only during daylight
with prime sea and weather conditions and after a MOC including a specific risk assessment for the task.

Fishing activity received from the fisheries office via Agent

8.6 Port Calls and Crew Changes

The project will begin in mid-November, 2018. Estimated completion time is ~60 days. Primary crew change
location will be Paramaribo. This will also serve as the primary Medevac location. We do not plane to utilize
helicopters for crew transfers and there will not be a dedicated helicopter service on standby for medical
emergencies.
Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport (IATA code PBM) is located in the town of Zanderij 60km south of the
Port of Paramaribo (about 1½ hr drive). This serves as the hub for the national carrier, Surinam Airways. The
other major carrier available is KLM.

Due to safety concerns arising from poor maintenance and unsafe driving practices, minibuses and other
public transport should be avoided. Taxis are acceptable if arranged by hotel management however fares
should be negotiated beforehand as they are unmetered. Secure transportation is the safest and most
convenient method of travel to and from the airport and within Paramaribo. Road conditions outside the
capital generally poorer and can deteriorate quickly during the wet season.

Further details on crew changes will be provided in the TIS (Travel Info Sheet) from EMGS Crewing and
Journey Management plan issued by EMGS QHSE.

8.7 Simultaneous Operations

There is no information on simultaneous operations at this time.

8.8 Emergency Towing/Loss of Propulsion

In the event of loss of propulsion NSS Emergency towing procedure will be utilized. Ref Appendix 1, NSS
towing manual. An emergency towing drill will be carried out prior to carrying out operations within any 500m
exclusion zone.

8.9 Security

Please look at the MERP for further details on medical evacuation.

Small scale piracy attacks have been reported off the coast of Paramaribo however these have targeted small
fishing boats and not large vessels.

The main security concern for short term travelers revolves around non-violent opportunistic street crime such
as pick-pocketing and purse snatching. Foreigners can be a target in shopping districts, business areas and
near hotels, especially at night. Thefts of personal items in hotel common areas such as bars, restaurants,
gyms and pools is often reported.
Violent crime such as murder and armed robbery do not usually affect short-term travelers however there are
certain areas that visitors should avoid after dark such as the Paramaribo Central area, the Palm Garden
entertainment area and the city’s port area.

8.10 Medical
Medical care is limited in Suriname and does not meet international standards. Standards of hygiene are low
and hospitals lack adequate medications and supplies. For this reason, UHCG has recommended that
evacuation from the country be carried out for serious medical cases or those requiring hospitalization. For
non-urgent care travelers are advised to forgo services until returning to their home country.

The main hospitals are located in Paramaribo with the Academic Hospital being the only one with an
emergency room. Outside of the capital it is impossible to find acceptable medical care.

UHCG recommends travelers bring an adequate supply of their own prescription or other medications from
their home country. To ensure smooth customs inspections ensure that all medications are carried in their
original labeled containers together with any written prescriptions or notes from their doctor.

All vaccinations should be up to date according to standard offshore requirements including; hepatitis A,
hepatitis B, Japanese encephalitis, rabies, typhoid fever, yellow fever, MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) and
diphtheria-tetanus-polio vaccine.

Travelers to the country are at risk from malaria, dengue fever and yellow fever. Suriname has also been
classified by UK health authorities as having a moderate risk of Zika virus transmission. Cases of
Chikungunya virus have also been confirmed. For these diseases, avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.

Dengue

Dengue is a viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes. It causes flu-like illness which can occasionally develop
into a more serious form of the disease. The mosquitoes that transmit dengue are most abundant in towns,
cities and surrounding areas. Bites are more prevalent between dusk and dawn.

Malaria

Malaria is a serious disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through the bites of infected
female Anopheles mosquitoes. Bites are more prevalent between dusk and dawn. Symptoms can develop as
early as six days or as late as several months after exposure. Early malaria symptoms are flu like, such as
head/body aches and generally feeling tired and unwell. Untreated, it can cause complications including
anemia, seizures, mental confusion, kidney failure and coma. It can be fatal.
There is a risk of malaria on the border with French Guiana. There is a low risk of malaria in the rest of
Suriname. There is no risk in the city of Paramaribo. This information has been taken from TravelHealthPro.

Prevention

Follow the ABCD guide for preventing malaria:

 Awareness of the risk – Depends on location, travel season, length of stay, type of accommodation.

 Bite prevention – Take mosquito bite avoidance measures such as using repellant and covering arms
and legs.

 Chemoprophylaxis – Take antimalarial medicine if appropriate for the area (not 100% effective but will
give protection). Examples include Atovaquone plus proguanil (Malarone® and generics),
Doxycycline (many brands and generics), and Mefloquine (Lariam® and generics).

 Diagnosis – Seek medical care if a fever of 38C (100F) or higher is developed more than one week
after being in a malaria risk area, or if symptoms suggestive of malaria are developed within a year.

Figure 1: General cross section showing the operation during transmission

9.1 Conventional Source System Overview

The Conventional Source is based on a Deep Xpress frame using standard conventional source subsea
system hardware. The source system is designed to meet state of the art Marine EM requirements with
respect to performance, physical dimensions and safety when handing the equipment.

The EM source system consists of a:

- Power supply and control unit at the topside

- Transmitter mounted on towed subsea-frame (towfish)

- Horizontal electric dipole connected to the towfish

The topside unit is controlling the power to generate the predefined EM pulse at the electric dipole. The
power is transformed to high voltage/low current and transferred via umbilical to the subsea system. At the
subsea system the power is transformed back to low voltage/high current. A trailing electric dipole (antenna)
is connected to the subsea signal source. This antenna is fed with a periodic current. The waveform,
amplitude and periodic time can be defined and changed at the topside operation station. A separate power
supply feeds the instrumentation on the towfish.

Figure 2: Schematic drawing of the Conventional source with Solid streamer antenna
Figure 2 shows the general schematic of the subsea configuration. The electric dipole (antenna) is neutrally
balanced for in-line towing operation. Towfish and tailfish are carrying additional survey and navigation
equipment.

9.3 Shelf Xpress Source System Overview

Figure 6: Shelf Xpress System Configuration

Shelf Xpress is designed to increase depth penetration and imaging in shallow water. This system is ideal for
continental-shelf operations in water depths from 10 m down to 700 m.

The Shelf Xpress has been designed so that the current source can be mounted on the vessel instead of
using a subsea encapsulation. In this way the output power can be significantly increased. The horizontal
electric dipole (HED) antenna is towed 10 m below the sea surface. In cases with extreme shallow water the
depth of the HED can be reduced.

The Shelf Xpress transmitter system is powered from the vessel’s 690 V supply. Based on industrial frequency
converter modules, the current source regulates the output waveform by using power transistors and Pulse
Width Modulation (PWM) technology.
 Figure 7: Shelf Xpress Source Output Container

The antenna system is a horizontal electric dipole (HED) connected directly to the on-board current source.
The HED is towed at 10 m depth and is suspended from the surface by 120 inflatable buoys. To reduce the
vessel impact on the transmitted signal, the HED is towed 100 m behind the vessel. Navigation buoys over
each electrode measure the dipole position with GPS precision. The impedance and temperature of the HED
are also monitored real time and used for QC.

The HED is almost 300m long and consists of a 1500 mm2 copper cable with an output current up to 7200A.
The dipole length can be extended or reduced if desirable.

9.5 Receiver System Overview

Figure 10: Receiver without sensor arms fitted

The Receiver System consists of:

 Receiver

 Operating Console for Health Check, Configuration and Data Download

Each receiver consists of:

 Frame with buoyancy and floating recovery ball and recovery rope

 Compacted sand anchor

 Battery

 Transponder

 Data Acquisition Unit (DAU)

 Magnetic Field Sensors

 Electric Field Sensors with removable sensor arms.

The Frame with buoyancy is the box girder for the receiver. The Buoyancy is rated to bring the receivers back
to surface after an anchor release on the seabed.

An anchor, constructed of compacted sand, is fitted on the Receiver prior to deployment in order to provide
negative buoyancy during deployment and stability during seabed recording. The anchor remains on the
seabed after release and degrades in approximately six to eight months.

The anchor release is controlled through a hydro acoustic transponder from the vessel’s hull mounted hydro
acoustic transceiver. The system allows predefining a large number of transponder address codes in order to
release the receivers individually. The system includes two acoustic release mechanisms; activation of an
electromechanical motor or as a backup activation of a burn wire. Due to the degrading of the anchor blocks
over time the Receiver will eventually surface in case of a dual release failure.

The battery pack provides power for the data logger and is installed inside the frame in separate pressure
housing.

The data logger (DAU) is the main electronic component in the Receiver. All electric and magnetic signals are
registered and amplified before they get digitized and stored on the 8 GB internal storage device (compact
flash card) in a 24-bit format. It is also possible to sample and store other values from sensors on the DAU,
i.e. temperature, battery voltages, tilt, pitch etc. The DAU is prepared with nine channels to store data from
nine sensors. A GPS synchronised internal clock time stamps the signals. Configuration, clock synchronisation
and data download is done through a connector from a PC terminal interface.

The Electric Field sensors consist of two pairs of flexible arms with one electrode at the end of each pair. Two
orthogonal electric sensor pairs make it possible to record the electric field in two orthogonal directions (x and
y). The DAU is measuring the potential difference between the electrodes and is capable of recording voltages
in the pico Volt (pV) range. Additionally, the amplifier has a dynamic gain, which allows it to adapt to the
greater signal magnitudes as the source passes overhead.
The magnetic sensors (orthogonal to each other) are induction coil magnetometers with a non-ferromagnetic
housing. The induced current (due to a time-varying magnetic field inside the coil) is measured and amplified
before being recorded by the data logger.
