Nigeria: Ogo find opens new play for neighbours


Issue 279 - 17 Jun 2014 | 1 minute read

Afren has completed acquisition of a 2,700km2 3D seismic survey over OPL 310 and the adjacent Aje field aimed at examining the potential for the new syn-rift play opened up by the Ogo discovery. Panoro Energy chief operating officer Nishant Dighe told Global Pacific & Partners’ Africa Independents’ Forum in London on 3 June that Afren had approached Panoro at end-2013 proposing the survey, which completed on 12 May. He said it would not affect development of the Aje field on OML 113, which is targeting first oil in Q4 2015, but he hoped it would add to the prospect inventory elsewhere on the block.
