Finding African Oil

What now for Africa? 0

Monday, January 25, 2016, London, The Geological Society



Download our report from this event

Africa probably has plenty of oil and gas business opportunities - but working out where they are, what they are, is another matter.

It is now abundantly clear that oil & gas companies are slashing their Exploration spend, not just for 2016 but probably into 2017 and 2018 as well.

So a good question is - are there any African exploration "sweet spots" which stand out even with oil prices at $30/barrel.
or....
Should we all be thinking of "Exploring on the FTSE" (aka "Drilling on Wall Street") on the basis that it is possible to buy discovered barrels (and gas molecules) - indeed whole companies that have made such discoveries - at significantly lower prices than it takes to explore for them?

During our annual "Finding African Oil" conference in London in January we'll be attempting to answer these questions - or at least help you grow your expertise.

This event is designed for explorers and business developers (and M&A folk!) - as well as service company business development staff - who would like to develop their knowledge of what's on offer and what's happening, and to see opportunities.

David Bamford - Director - Finding Petroleum

Welcome & Introduction:



David Bamford is well known around the oil & gas industry both as an explorer and a geophysicist. He holds a Physics degree from the University of Bristol and a Ph.D in Geological Sciences from the University of Birmingham.

Since 2004, he has been a non-executive director at Tullow Oil plc, being recruited for this position especially for his exploration knowledge. He serves on the Nominations and Remuneration Committees, and was chairman of the latter, and Senior Independent Director, for 3 years prior to his retire from the board at the end of April 2014.

He was on the board of Premier Oil from May 2014 to May 2016.

He retired from BP plc in 2003, his last four positions being Chief Geophysicist (1990-1995), Business Unit Leader (General Manager) for first West Africa and then Norway (1995-1999), and finally Head of Exploration until 2003.

He has served on the boards of Paras Ltd, a small exploration and IS/IT consulting company in which he held 22% equity, until its sale to RPS Energy in 2008 and Welltec a/s, a Danish well engineering company, as the nominee of the private equity investor Riverside.

From 2012 to 201 he was on the board of ASX-quoted Australia Oriental Energy as a non-executive director.

He was a founder of Richmond Energy Partners, a small oil & gas research house, and several media companies that focus on the oil & gas sector, and has served as an advisor to Alliance Bernstein, Opus Executive, the Parkmead Group plc, and Kimmeridge Energy LLP. Since retiring from BP, he has undertaken asset and company valuation projects for investment banks, hedge funds and small oil companies.

M&A targets in Africa


Stuart has worked at both bulge bracket and regional European investment banks (Credit Suisse, ING and Unicredit). He has followed the global oil and gas sector since graduating from business school over 15 years ago, covering all types of oil and gas companies (including the European majors, Russian oil and gas companies and junior names). Stuart has written the research for several oil and gas equity raisings and was Credit Suisse’s lead analyst in both LUKoil’s and Gazprom’s IPOs in Russia. As Head of Equity Research at ING, he has overseen the research of more than a dozen other transactions.

Future Energy Partners (FEP) is a unique oil and gas advisory service which prides itself on technical excellence in selected fields and supplementing business management and leadership; in the face of uncertainty.

We offer truthful, professional opinion and advice; no playback of what you already know, and no spin.

FEP was founded by 4 senior industry practitioners who consider the challenges faced by today's oil and gas environment are going to require herculean acts of leadership and technical skill in a transforming, transitioning, industry, in order to maintain an energy supply that is sustainable and even recognisable compared to recent history.

Similarly nations developing an oil and gas industry face related challenges as they seek to maximise the benefits of this new wealth-creating opportunity - in a responsible manner.

Global reach

FEP actively participates in the facilitation and conduct of seminars and webinars worldwide, for example in conjunction with its associate partner Finding Petroleum.

Our presence reaches parts of the globe, such as: the UK, the USA, Sub-Saharan Africa, with partners wherever we work.

Patrick Coole - Geoscientist - PGS

Direct Hydrocarbon Indicator (DHI) supported exploration in frontier basins: Western Côte d’Ivoire Offshore, Blocks CI-506 and 507

Talk Description.
In 2014 PGS in conjunction with Petroci and the DGH, acquired and processed over 2,200 sq. km of 3D GeoStreamer® data over CI-506 and CI-507 - two open blocks offshore Côte d’Ivoire. The western margin of Côte d’Ivoire remains frontier; however a working hydrocarbon system is supported by a number of significant discoveries nearby, including Saphir (Total, block CI-514) and Morue (Anadarko, block CI-516).

In order to better understand the geology and hydrocarbon potential of blocks CI-506 and CI-507, PGS completed a major study of the data incorporating both geological and Quantitative Interpretation (QI). Results from the study display multiple DHIs (Direct Hydrocarbon Indicators) supported by low Relative Acoustic and Relative Vp/Vs volumes, subsequent cross-plots and AVO studies.
The geological and QI projects completed on the CI-506 and CI-507 dataset have significantly de-risked the petroleum system in this area. With additional wells drilled next year, the western margin of the offshore Côte d’Ivoire is set to have an exciting future for exploration.
Patrick has an undergraduate degree in Geography and Geology from the University of Manchester and an MSc in Petroleum Geoscience from Imperial College. Patrick has worked over a number of regions during a career spanning 6 years. Over the past 2 years Patrick has worked for PGS solely on their Africa projects on the geological interpretation of datasets across the margin.

Ben Sayers - Project Developer - TGS

The prospectivity of offshore Madagascar

Talk Description.
TGS have recently completed a full geological and geophysical evaluation of the hydrocarbon prospectivity of the entire offshore western margin of Madagascar; from Cap d’Ambre in the north to Cap St. Marie in the south. The study was based upon the interpretation of nearly 50,000 km of multi-client 2D seismic, potential field data and existing well data. As a result the integrated prospectivity of all the offshore sedimentary basins can be understood for the first time and new frontier exploration targets and plays are revealed.

With only 11 wells drilled offshore, and none in water depths greater than 50 m, offshore Madagascar has enormous untested potential in addition to the well-known onshore heavy oil play. A tour of these offshore basins will show the different structural and sedimentary settings that the complex tectonic history of Madagascar has produced.

Ben is a petroleum geologist with over 10 years upstream industry experience. He has been focussed on Africa for the majority of his career with recent focus on the North West Atlantic Margin.
Ben has an MSc in Petroleum Geoscience from Royal Holloway and a BSc in Geography & GIS from University of Greenwich; previously employed for a Moroccan-based operator Ben now works for TGS and is based in their London office.
