Commencement of 3D Seismic Reprocessing at the First of Three Major Prospect Areas

Global Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: GLV) (Global or Company) is pleased to provide a further update on its 4,585km2 Tumbes Basin Technical Evaluation Agreement (TEA or block) offshore Peru. The block comprises over 3,800km2 of existing 3D seismic data and more than 7,000km of 2D seismic.


Highlights

  • Commencement of seismic reprocessing targeting the extensive Bonito and Volador prospects in the southern portion of the Company’s 4,585km2 offshore Peru oil and gas block
  • The Bonito and Volador prospect area is the first of three prospective areas to be reprocessed – a total of at least 1,000km2 of 3D seismic is to be reprocessed
  • Reprocessing expected to enhance structure mapping, improve lithology and fluid discrimination and allow for the estimation of prospective resources and progress through to drill ready targets

The Company propose to reprocess a total of approximately 1,000km2 of 3D seismic data across three discrete highly prospective areas within the offshore block. The first prospective area to be reprocessed is a 250km2 area in the southern part of the TEA incorporating the Bonito and the Volador prospects.

From the interpretation of the historically processed data it is clear that both these prospects have the potential to hold significant hydrocarbon volumes. The reprocessing of the 3D seismic data will enable Global to estimate Prospective Resources and progress the prospects to drill ready status.

Bonito Prospect

The Bonito prospect is a large anticlinal feature with 76km2 of closure (Figures 2 and 3) where the Zorritos Formation, the primary reservoir in the basin, is at a depth of c. 2,050m (~1,500m sub-sea).

The Tumbes Basin has a complex geological history related to the forces created by the Pacific Plate colliding with, and being subducted beneath, the South American Plate. Periods of faulting and rapid subsidence are interspersed with periods of compression and uplift thought to be responsible for forming the Bonito structure.

Seismic reprocessing should result in improvements to the data quality that will improve both the accuracy of depth mapping and the ability to discriminate lithology and fluids which would ultimately result in the Company’s ability to estimate the potential volumes of hydrocarbons to be contained, select potential exploration well locations and mature prospects to drill ready status.

Tracy Shuchart: Energy Demand Exploding — Watching Oil/Gas, Uranium and Grid Stocks

Tracy Shuchart, CEO and founder of Hilltower Resource Advisors, discussed the growing need for all types of energy in the US, saying she's looking for opportunities in oil, natural gas, grid stocks and uranium juniors.

"I think 2025 is going to be a really good year for energy, absolutely," she said. "Not just because of the incoming administration that is very pro-energy and very-pro nuclear as well. But I think with this demand explosion that we're having it's going to be hard to keep ignoring that sector as people have over the last few years."

Looking at oil stocks, Shuchart said those who do their research will be able to find bargains outside the majors.

Trillion Energy International Inc. (" Trillion " or the "Company ") (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to announce that it has successfully run 2 38 velocity string tubing ("VS") in four existing wells, including three long reach wells on the Akcakoca Platform at the SASB Gas Field, Turkey.

The new tubing operation was conducted to reduce water loading, increase production and overall recovery from the wells. With the new tubing strings, the wells should be able to produce at a lower WHP (well head pressure) for a longer period.

Eric Nuttall: Oil Facing Volatile 2025 — Where I'm Investing, Plus Prices, Supply and Demand

Eric Nuttall, partner and senior portfolio manager at Ninepoint Partners, spoke to the Investing News Network about 2024 oil market trends and what's next for the sector heading into 2025.

While the past year has been tough overall, he believes the biggest challenge is sentiment.

"Nobody's here. Nobody cares. Nobody is aware of any of the bullish potential, because everybody is just focused on the narrative around, '(The market is) awash in oil and we're going to fall to US$60 (per barrel).' Or I even saw US$40 the other day. You've got to try to really tune out the noise," Nuttall explained during the conversation.
