New Gulf of Papua Seismic Survey Launched - Tree - 11-05-2015
Searcher announces new multi-client 2D seismic survey over the Gulf of Papua, PNG.
03 Nov 2015
Searcher Seismic is pleased to announce the Haere 2D Seismic Survey offshore PNG.
The survey, in cooperation with the Department of Petroleum and Energy (DPE) and project partner BGP, comprises ~17,000 km of 2D long-offset, high resolution, broadband seismic over the Gulf of Papua.
The BGP Explorer has now mobilised for the project.
Rachel Masters, Global Sales Manager for Searcher, said Haere is a grid of modern, high quality data that will be fundamental in assisting the re-interpretation of the geology in the Gulf of Papua, and the identification of prospective structural and stratigraphic trends that can be used for regional evaluations and future detailed seismic survey designs.
“Deep grabens in the area are believed to contain extensive Mesozoic and Palaeozoic sediments, which may be associated with multiple unexplored petroleum systems, highlighting the prospectivity of the Gulf of Papua.
“It is an exciting time in PNG for oil and gas exploration and we are very pleased to again be working with DPE in the area,” Ms Masters added.
The new survey brings Searcher’s total data library in the Gulf of Papua to 58,000 km.
Fast track data deliveries will commence in Q1 2016.

Largest number of seismic lines are off E/A finds it appears . Why do that ???!!

Interesting, BGP is part of China National Petroleum Corp. This could be a positive thing for my long IOC shares.

LAHARA NON-EXCLUSIVE 2D SEISMIC SURVEY GULF OF PAPUA, PAPUA NEW GUINEA
VIEW PROJECT PAGE
-The Lahara 2D Seismic Survey is the only regional 2D seismic grid over the eastern portion of the Gulf of Papua.
-The survey has led to a re-interpretation of the geology and a subsequent upgrading of the prospectivity of the Gulf of Papua region.
-A thick sedimentary section below has been identified, which was previously interpreted as basement.
-The survey has identified a number of deep graben in the sparsely explored deepwater areas which are believed to contain extensive Mesozoic and Palaeozoic sediments.
Positive, positive stuff here Tree. Covering?

Well watching...wave watching....
Perhaps it may well play out as a mini GoM.

Palm - As you may know , grabens are a downthrown block between two faults . If the newer survey seismics have really discovered a number of these,then our lease (I believe it's #474 that encompases the Wahoo well ) should still have some significant possibilities for the future. I like the words"a thick sedimentary section below" . Old thinking on this layer was basement. Have a pleasent evening.
