Chariot Oil & Gas has launched its 3D seismic offshore Morocco. Dolphin Geophysical is carrying out the survey using the Sanco Swift vessel.
The survey is being conducted over portions of three of Chariot’s blocks and will encompass a total of 1,700 sq km; the survey includes around 1,075 sq km in the Rabat Deep, about 250 sq km in the Loukos Offshore, and an estimated 375 sq km on the Mohammedia.
The aim of the survey is to enable the company to mature drillable prospects in the Mio-Pliocene and Jurassic plays identified within this region on reprocessed legacy 2D data.
The program is anticipated to take six weeks to complete and fulfils all of the company’s work commitments in each of its Moroccan licenses during their current periods of exploration, including that of the Mohammedia Reconnaissance License.
