Daavar prospect West of Shetland25 Jun 2021 13:03
Block 205/12 (Parkmead 100% and operator) is situated in the Faroe-Shetland Basin immediately to the west of the Parkmead operated block 205/13, which contains the Sanda prospect. One large prospect, Davaar, has been identified in Block 205/12 and is a combination structural and stratigraphic trap in the Vaila Formation. The Palaeocene Vaila Formation is the primary play fairway on this acreage and forms the reservoir in the adjacent Foinaven, Schiehallion and Loyal oil fields and the Laggan and Tormore gas fields. Parkmead will undertake to reprocess the existing legacy seismic with a new 3D seismic shoot, contingent on the results, and a drill or drop well. Davaar has the potential to contain 204 million barrels of recoverable oil on a P50 basis.
