The potential impact of a seismic survey on the aquatic fauna of lake Albert especially fish. A contribution to the Herdman Petroleum (Uganda) Pty Ltd: Lake Albert Seismic Survey Environmental Impact Assessment.
Uganda Government and the Democratic Republic of Congo have signed an Agreement for a joint exploration and development of Hydrocarbons within the Albertine Graben area. One of the preliminary activities in the exploration is a survey which would indicate potential areas for further activities which would lead to actual drilling.1.2. It is proposed that a Seismic Survey of Lake Albert be undertaken in an area referred to as Contract Area 2 (Figure 1). The survey will be done using a catamaran, dragging a 900 meter, 48 channel streamer and airgun of 200 psi. This streamer is significantly smaller than the standard 1,000 psi guns used in marine seismic surveys.
