State-of-the-art 3-D seismic technology led to a major gas discovery — and perhaps much more — in South Africa.
Fortesa International is a Houston-based exploration and production company with operations in the Frio Trend of Texas and an onshore concession block in Senegal, Africa. We decided to take a booth at the 2002 APPEX Property and Prospect Expo in Houston with the hope that it would be an effective venue for us to promote an interest in our Senegal opportunity.
The list of reasons why to attend APPEX London just got bigger.
Following the Ceiba discovery, Triton Energy acquired 4,200 square kilometers of 3-D seismic and embarked on a multi-well exploration campaign that resulted in three encouraging but commercially unsuccessful wells and two additional discoveries.
Recent exploration successes in Equatorial Guinea are boosting one of the world's poorest countries to become one of the world's fastest growing economies.
The following are the highlights of the major discoveries of 2002 reported through December 1 by IHS Energy.
When it comes to oil and gas discoveries, 2002 will be remembered for quality rather than quantity.
This month's column is titled 'Seismic Meta Attributes as a Practical Exploration Tool: Gas Chimney and Fault Volumes.'
The AAPG International Conference and Exhibition in Cairo proved to be an experience as interesting as the Land of the Pharaohs.
