Cretaceous Potential Revealed in CDI Open Acreage
In partnership with PetroCi and Direction Générale des Hydrocarbures, PGS has completed phase two of the Côte d’Ivoire MegaSurvey, adding 9 897 sq. km of 3D and 24 632 km 2D in the Tano Basin. Data from phases 1 and 2 have been matched, merged, and re-binned onto a common grid, to create a single, continuous 32 310 sq. km volume of full-stack data in the time domain.
The latest Cote d’Ivoire MegaSurvey spans the western extension of the prolific Tano Basin and covers the recent high-profile “Baleine” (Eni) discovery, reported to have found light oil in two separate reservoirs of Santonian and Cenomanian/Albian age. The MegaSurvey is along strike to the recent Eni “Eban-1X” nearfield discovery, which also discovered oil in an 80m-thick section of Cenomanian sandstones.
Numerous Upper Cretaceous turbidite channel and fan systems present in the eastern deepwater area are also revealed on the new coverage.
Exploration Screening on West African Transform Margin
The new MegaSurvey coverage allows the entire West African transform margin to be analyzed in a regional context.
PGS 3D data along the margin covers existing discoveries, farm-in opportunities, and open blocks available for licensing. A special promotional package is available that allows exploration for analogs, identification of new prospects, and detailed play analysis from shelf to deep water, along the entire margin.
Five key regional horizons have been tied to wells and interpreted allowing field-scale geological understanding to be placed into a basin-wide context and open acreage opportunities to be assessed with confidence.
