Global Petroleum has contracted Seabird Exploration to acquire seismic in Namibia. The contract is for an 834 km full fold 2D seismic data acquisition covering Global’s PEL 0029 offshore Namibia.
The survey has been designed as an infill program with the aim of providing better delineation of the extremely large, multi-level, dip closed Gemsbok prospect, which has been mapped in the south-eastern portion of the Global acreage.
The new 2D survey is expected significantly to clarify the nature and extent of Gemsbok. In addition, the survey has been specifically designed to improve the resolution of the deeper syn-rift section adjacent to the Gemsbok structure, as well as to provide a more accurate understanding of the deeper sedimentary sequence where it is believed potential source rocks are likely to be present.
It is expected that the survey will commence towards the end of June/early July and take approximately two weeks to complete.
