LONDON --Granby Oil and Gas Plc. has begun seismic operations over four UK North Sea blocks.

TheFugro Meridian is scheduled to acquire high-density 2D surveys over blocks 9/22, 14/14b, and 14/9, plus a conventional 2D survey over 16/11a.

"We are very pleased to start these surveys which we anticipate will firm up well locations on several prospects in readiness for potential drilling later in 2007 or 2008," says David Grassick, managing director of Granby.

"Granby has identified significant potential on the blocks and the surveys have been designed to de-risk the prospects as much as possible prior to selecting well locations," says Richard Moreton, executive director of Granby. The high density 2D surveys are the first modern datasets to be acquired on these blocks and as such should provide extremely important information to Granby and its co-venturers."
