Oil potential at Ruvuma13 Jun 2022 13:06
Here's something I posted on the AEX BB a couple of weeks ago, and as you're now in the JV it's probably of interest to you too.
Things could sure start getting interesting as we head towards 3D Seismic results and then drilling.
Who remembers that the oil is believed to have moved up-dip, from the basin to onshore? Who remembers we chased this oil at Likonde and had oil shows, and looked again for it further up-dip at Ntorya where we also had oil shows? And now we are drilling even further up-dip at Chikumbi.
Many TCF's of Gas will be great, but the oil had to go somewhere, and wherever it is there could be a lot of it....

"Likonde is an onshore prospect, meaning drill costs are lower and while it may be a relatively small scale project for Tullow, it is an entirely new exploration region for the company. The target is located on the Ruvuma licence and is reckoned to have the potential to hold 500 million barrels of oil in place, with estimates of recoverable reserves in excess of 150 million barrels of oil."
And, we haven't even tested the Jurassic yet.... Chikumbi drilling will be doing that.

Mike Rego: “The oil is out there, we just have to improve how we look for it"
Neil Ritson: "“Black oil was seen on the cuttings [at the NT-2 well in Tanzania] – now what we will make of that in the next few months to years, I don’t know"
