Serica has progressed to the first renewal period of the licence, running until the end of 2018.
Seismic re-processing carried out this year fulfilled remaining licence
commitments and confirmed the presence of robust amplitude-based seismic anomalies
that indicate the potential presence of porous, hydrocarbon -charged reservoir
sandstones. The anomalies are optimally located up -dip of the regional proven source
rock and lie in relatively shallow (500m) water depth.
These prospects are in addition to the large carbonate prospect previously identified, located in deeper water.
Serica is seeking a partner to drill one or more of the prospects located on the licence
and are talking to other operators in the area about potentially joining a wider drilling
programme offshore Namibia
