Talk Description
Disruptive' discoveries are the material exploration finds that can reset basin creaming curves and invigorate exploration (think Stabroek in Guyana).

They require some “rebel” thinking beyond the norm. Careful data observation in combination with the application of new technology, especially seismic imaging.

This talk examines the potential hydrocarbon potential across the Gulf of Mexico with respect to global discovery analogues and touches on play aspects of isolated carbonate build ups (Zohr as example), thinking about heat flow assumptions and the impact (Namibia), and a deliberate search for high NTG in deep water slope settings (Zama and Girasol as examples).

It draws on recent global discoveries to suggest that some new play types may also be present across the wider Gulf of Mexico and beyond, looking for new frontiers.
