Tim Davies - Group Exploration Asset Manager - Premier Oil
Are deepwater plays still attractive? – Ceara Basin Brazil a case study
Talk Description. The key to deepwater sweet spots are exceptional reservoirs at unexceptional depths – does the Cretaceous drift sequence in the Ceara basin present us with opportunities to test this hypothesis?
The advantage of the Ceara Basin on the brazil transform margin is that the play risk has been removed by the Pecem discovery derisking the petroleum system and discovery of good oil in the Cretaceous turbidite channel system tested by the 1-CES-160 well ‘Broken Canoe Well’.
The conjugate margin to the Ghana discoveries and lessons learnt from those discovers has influence the interpretation of the leads and prospects in the Ceara Basin. The attraction of having these deepwater opportunities in a portfolio is the scale of the opportunities available.
In the current market with depressed rig and service costs there is an opportunity for creative development solutions to add value to licences secured at a high oil price.
Currently Group Exploration Manager with Premier Oil responsible for Mexico, Brazil, Falklands, UK and New Ventures. 20 years in the industry with Conoco, Hess and Premier Oil.
PhD in turbidity current processes and high resolution sequence stratigraphy from Cardiff University – tad out of date now!
BSc Aberystwyth University when they used to do geology and look at the magnificent turbidite exposures on the beach in front of the college.
JV partners with Talos and Sierra in the recent Zama discovery in Mexico….
