OSLO, Norway — PGS, in a collaboration with PetroCi and Direction Générale des Hydrocarbures, has extended coverage in the Côte d’Ivoire MegaSurvey to 37,671 sq km of 3D data and 31,743-line km of 2D data.
All 3D input datasets have been matched, merged and re-binned onto a common grid to create a single, continuous volume of full-stack seismic data in the time domain.
The expansion provides full-shallow to deepwater coverage along the Ghana/Côte d’Ivoire maritime border within the Tano Basin, PGS added.
The MegaSurvey also covers Eni’s deepwater Baleine-1X well, which discovered oil and gas in Cenomanian aged carbonates and a shallower Santonian reservoir, thought to comprise turbidite channel sandstones.
And the dataset is along-strike of Eni’s 2021 Eban-1X light oil discovery in Cenomanian sandstones offshore Ghana. Both finds suggest significant potential in Cretaceous plays along the margin, PGS said.
The newly extended coverage includes the deepwater open Block CI-605.
