PEL 82 governs blocks 2112B and 2212A and is located in the Walvis Basin, offshore Namibia. Approximately 70% of the total block area is covered by more than 3,500 km of 2D and 9,500 sq km of 3D seismic data.
Previous drilling activity on PEL 82 included the Murombe-1 dry-hole well and Wingat-1 discovery well. Per Custos, results confirmed the regional extension and presence of the Barremian-Aptian oil-prone source rock (Kudu shale). The Murombe-1 penetrated the Baobab sands with approximately 20% porosity, while the Wingat-1 well recovered 38-41 degree API oil to surface.\uff082024-05-01\uff09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
