Coil Shooting is a technique developed to acquire a full azimuth dataset with a single vessel towed streamer operation. The first full 3D Coil Shooting survey was conducted offshore Indonesia over the Tulip field in August and September 2008. Two proof-of-concept “coil feasibility” studies had already been carried out in GOM, and the Black Sea. However, as the first full production 3D Coil project, the acquisition still presented some challenges to the planning and execution of the survey. This paper presents the acquisition review of the Tulip Coil survey, focusing primarily on the acquisition planning, deployment, QC phases and production efficiency of the project with special focus on the importance of adjusting the straight line mindset of marine streamer geophysicist.
