.... The ideal scenario for this prospect is a lean gas composition, as an oil scenario would result in discontinuing further appraisal and development evaluations. Abstract Reservoir fluid estimation for exploration prospects can be random and of large uncertainties. Typically, the reservoir fluid...

... thicknesses of Paleozoic and Mesozoic sediments. Recent work by Eni identifies the potential for prospective section to be preserved on the Erris Ridge resulting in two large prospects, Fiachra and Conn, and a number of leads being identified. The Fiachra Prospect is a large fault assisted four-way dip...

... Abstract This paper covers the HPHT Gas-Condensate Exploration Well, 6406/9-1 on the Onyx SW prospect of the Norway Sea in the late spring of 2005 ( Figure 1 and 2 ). The well test design and execution is presented in the paper, including; up front planning, job design, technology selection...

... Investigation of the pre-stack CDP seismic gathers showed a very distinct A.V.O. (Amplitude vs. Offset) anomaly associated with the bright spot on the stack. Modelling of these A.V.O. gathers predicted the presence of a 26 meter gas sand. The prospect was risked at 1 in 400, for oil...

... it is considered that either the costs incurred to date or the remaining prospectivity were such that no further investment should be made. In the cost limited case, the decision may be to farm-out if possible. The remaining prospectivity case, I hope, is self-evident. For this calculation to be made...

In other countries, such as Norway, production is increasing, and the net effect could be relatively stable over all output levels. On the supply...

ABSTRACT Prospect evaluation requires a multi disciplined approach and should recognise uncertainty in respect of the determination of recoverable reserves, field life production costs, product prices, political and fiscal regimes. This paper compares alternative prospect evaluation methodology...
