Lotshi Block – Prospect Portfolio • At least 7 prospects (defined by 2-D seismic), 3 independent play ideas
– 450 km criss-crossed 2-D seismic (250 km originally shot Fina and 202 km shot by EnerGulf)
• Lucula (target reservoir in all 7 prospects):
– Forabola well drilled in 1970’s defined the Lucula Formation as the best potential reservoir on the block
– Lucula is stratigraphically equivalent to the reservoir at the giant M’Boundi field.
• Bucomazi is also a primary target in one prospect
– Good reservoir properties in adjacent block to north
• Fractured basement or “basement wash” is a primary target in two of the prospects.
– Produced hydrocarbons in nearby Lindu well and in nearby Cabinda.
• The Chela Dolomite is a secondary target in each prospect.
– produces from the giant Rabi-Kounga field in Gabon and smaller fields in Gabon.
– Tested at 2000 bbl/day in a discovery in nearby Cabinda
