Hi all,
Great to see Lonny back with a few messages and firing on all Cylinders, Lets see what comes to Fruition in the near future.
In the meantime, GRH on X asked the question with regard to Isopach (Maps) from the Original 2012 Pathfinder Cpr.
I believe this is the paragraph in which he was referring to.
NEOGENE
There are a number of seismic interpretations of the Neogene sequence in the Guercif
basin. Zizi (Zizi, 2002) produced an isopach map of the Tertiary which shows a thickness of
over 1,900m 25km SSE of Guercif town. ONHYM (Charrat, December 2004) produced a
time structure map on Base Tertiary unconformity (same as base Neogene). Sani (F. Sani,
2000) contains a base Neogene time isopach map that is very similar and also shows the
parts of the Neogene basin that were uplifted and eroded in the late Neogene-Quaternary.
The main isopach thicks are in the area around wells GRF-1, MSD-1 and north of KDH-1
which are west of Guercif town (see Figure 3 for locations). Here the Neogene-Quaternary
reaches 1,900msecs TWT which equates to around 2,000m. This is confirmed by the GRF
1 well where the base Neogene was encountered at 1,932m.
We believe the likely maximum thickness of the Neogene-Quaternary sequence in the Guercif basin is in the
range 2,000 to 2,400 metres and that reservoirs in the interval 1,400m to 2,400m would be
attractive targets for biogenic gas1.
Based on field mapping (Bernini M. B. M., 1992), (R. Gelati, 2000), two lens-like turbiditic
bodies have been identified intercalated within the “blue marls” of the basinal Tortonian
sequence. Typical sandstone beds at outcrop range from 1m to 40m in thickness and are
deposited in local depocentres. This sequence is overlain by gypsiferous marls that make
an excellent seal. Locally this gypsiferous sequence contains bedded lignites that could be
a good biogenic gas source in the basinal areas.
A few have suggested what lies beneath Guercif is Huge and its all connected.
Time to find out !
Gla genuine investors.
