The Norwegian seismic surveyor has a 100 percent success rate when it comes to finding oil and gas deposits in the Barents Sea in the Arctic, according to a note by Bernstein Research, Norwegian daily Finansavisen reported on Friday.
The company's electromagnetic technology confers it an advantage over competitors that enables it to find hydrocarbons where others can't, said the report.
