Cloudbreak Discovery, Gondwana Petroleum Namibia Pty Ltd., Timeworn Investments Pty Ltd., Pioneer Oil and Gas Consulting CC and a Swiss-based asset manager will jointly work towards submission of an application to acquire Petroleum Exploration License 1724 in Namibia.
TGS has announced a new 3D seismic survey in partnership with Schlumberger.
The project applies a modern comprehensive broadband processing workflow to 3363 km2 of 3D data to better understand the hydrocarbon prospectivity of the Tarakan Basin.
The project will cover the Sapinhoá Shared Reservoir in the Santos Basin offshore Brazil.
The exploration blocks are located off the coasts of Sabah and Sarawak.
The well was drilled on the northern culmination of the greater Pavo structure and encountered a 60-m gross hydrocarbon column in the primary Caley member reservoir target.
Preliminary estimates of the size of the discovery in the Berkine North Basin are around 140 million barrels of oil in place.
The operations in the reservoir section are still at an early stage and it has yet to be confirmed if commercial volumes are present.
Reach Subsea has joined forces with OCTIO to strengthen its capabilities in survey and inspection data gathering.
