I’ve long stated the key to unlocking the hydrocarbons in Guercif is understanding the underlying deep seated fault systems in this complex sedimentary basin.
Whilst it’s understood that faults and carrier beds are petroleum migration pathways - the bridges between source rocks and traps - what marks out Guercif is their deeply seated depth.
These deep seated faults cut through ALL the four petroleum systems identified in the Guercif basin, namely the Paleozoic, Triassic, Jurassic and Tertiary.
When these deep seated faults cut through these source rocks they effectively become the generating kitchen feeding these carrier beds, with potentially great energy.
In the recent presentation PG stated “In MOU-1 there’s a major fault up against the reservoirs of the shallow section that has charged everything with dry gas. In MOU-2 all the faults terminate below this fantastic seal so everything should be trapped underneath the seal at our target level….clearly the gas is trapped right below this thick seal in these bright amplitude events covering over 30-40km2. That’s a fantastic opportunity”
There are fifteen major faults crossing the basin like a mosaic and it is for this reason I echo GRH’s words when he said recently ..
“I am witnessing... in real time.. the unfurling of one of THE great hydrocarbon fields of the world.”
Indeed we are.
