SAExploration seeking storage site

SAExploration Inc. wants to use the Franklin Bluffs pad for summer storage.

The seismic company wants to use 8 acres of the pad to store sleigh camps and seismic equipment, Permit and Regulatory Manager Suzan Simonds told the Alaska Department of Natural Resources in a land use permit application from late February.

The permit would start this year and last through 2019.

Through a joint venture subsidiary Kuukpik SAE, SAExploration conducted a seismic survey on behalf of Repsol USA E&P Inc. along the Colville River, south of Nuiqsut.

The company was scheduled to perform a separate survey in the Oliktok Point region on behalf of ConocoPhillips Alaska Inc., although ConocoPhillips delayed the program, saying that the region was too crowded with other activities this year to support a survey.

ConocoPhillips has said it will consider the program again in a future budget cycle.
