Namibia Offshore PEL 87
Location: | Orange Basin | |
Project Size: | 10,947 square kilometres | |
JV Partners: | Pancontinental (Operator) | 75.00% |
Custos Investments (Pty) Ltd | 15.00% | |
NAMCOR* | 10.00% | |
*National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia |
The joint venture consists of Pancontinental with a 75% interest, local company Custos Investments (Pty) Ltd; 15% and the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia holding 10%.
The joint venture has acquired over 2,800 line kms of good quality 2D seismic as well as numerous other reports and studies. This technical data has assisted the joint venture in identifying a number of leads within a vast, 2,400km² Turbidite Fan complex ("Saturn") of Aptian Age that, based on Pancontinental's interpretation is encased in sealing shales. The Saturn Turbidite Fan complex covers a core area of more than 2,400 square kilometres with an overall area of about 4,000 square kilometres and holds significant oil potential.
Pancontinental is seeking a farminee to advance exploration of the PEL Block. The farmout process is ongoing and in the meantime additional work is being undertaken to add value to the Project.
During the quarter, Pancontinental and joint ventures partners Custos and Namcor received an executed deed extending the Initial Exploration Period of Namibian offshore Petroleum Exploration Licence 87 by one year. The current Initial Exploration Period, as extended, can be followed by three additional two-year Periods, subject to certain conditions.
Pancontinental has been exploring in Namibia for over a decade and in that time has built up a database of information which indicates the prospectivity of offshore Namibia. Pancontinental's theories have been validated by the two high profile discoveries made by Shell and TotalEnergies with their Graff- 1 and Venus-1X wells respectively. Both of these discoveries are on trend to Pancontinental's PEL 87 Orange Basin area.
