I certainly don't, and I've never been able to find any really useful information on the seismic.
Seismic appears to have been done on several occasions over the years dating back to the 1990's, but not so far as I'm aware by us.
Even the admission document didn't give much detail.
DS and AAOG have never given much away as regards seismic, exactly what they think is down there, and as to why they think there is so much oil down there.
All DS ever says is such as
"To have encountered hydrocarbons in the Djeno at the first attempt is an excellent outcome and is testament to the quality of the geological model we put in place for Tilapia ahead of commencing drilling operations."
and
"Once again, the geological model was extremely accurate, with the Mengo being intersected at a variance of less than three metres from the model. Where there has been divergence is that initial results show a thicker Mengo than expected, which translates into a potentially larger pay zone."
and
"The Company is confident that there is also a further Djeno reservoir below the current drilled depth which is prognosed to be in sandstone"
I've seen someone say it is around 100 metres below where we stopped drilling on 103C ie around 3100 metres depth. Presumably it is a lot thicker than 12 metres.
But whatever seismic out there and the modelling done it appears to be absolutely spot on.
And if it is spot on so far, presumably it will continue to be so, and we'll get the much thicker Djeno layer on 104.
And as for the Vandji he says,
"If the Well performs in accordance with the Company's geological model, TLP-103C can be extended to target the Vandji horizon."
The mind boggles - but whilst it is boggling just read this -
http://www.searchanddiscovery.com/documents/2019/51549tukimin/ndx_tukimin.pdf
This paper dates from 4 th February 2019 and is presented by a Petronas engineer/geologist.
Page 9 of that shows a map and gives examples of wells which penetrated the Vandji.
Pointe Noire and Pointe Indienne are the two bits sticking out on the coastline shown on map, which means that the yellow dot to the left of "Well D2", which this document says penetrated the Vandji must only be a few km north of Tilapia.
In fact it must be almost on top of the drilling pad I've referred to as "BN" "Big North" on here.
"BN", I believe, was drilled between June and October 2018 (although the evidence for this is by no means certain, and is somewhat circumstantial, and probably open to some questioning if I posted it here - very fuzzy images and all that).
Unfortunately no further details are given concerning the well represented by the yellow dot, save it penetrated the Vandji.
