据离岸能源7月29日消息,澳大利亚国家海洋石油所有权管理局(NOPTA)已授予3D Oil Limited在近海吉普斯兰盆地的VIC/P74许可证。
3D Oil上周五表示,1006平方公里的许可开采范围位于吉普斯兰盆地的南侧,毗邻大型油田Kingfish。
据该公司称,世界级的Kingfish油田是澳大利亚有史以来发现的最大油田,迄今已生产超过10亿桶石油。
主要工作计划是适度的,主要包括后处理三维地震数据的采购。
VIC/P74的面积收购的理由是,由于服务公司CGG正在进行再处理,盆地的三维地震可能显著增强。该地区的勘探之前曾受到严重的深度转换问题的阻碍,这些问题与储层目标上方浅层的速度复杂性有关。
最近在后处理技术方面的进展在这个技术问题上取得了重大进展,正如3D Oil的其他吉普斯兰许可证VIC/P57所证。
3D Oil表示,该许可开采范围可能具有显著的油气聚集潜力,这一点可以从邻近的Kingfish油田得到证明。该许可证还包含Omeo气体和凝析油的发现。

3D Oil awarded offshore permit close to ‘largest oil field ever discovered in Australia’
Australia’s National Offshore Petroleum Title Administrator (NOPTA) has awarded 3D Oil Limited the VIC/P74 permit in the offshore Gippsland Basin.
The 1,006 km2 permit is located on the southern side of the Gippsland Basin, adjacent the giant Kingfish oil field, 3D Oil said last Friday.
According to the company, the world class Kingfish field is the largest oil field ever discovered in Australia and to date has produced over one billion barrels of oil.
The primary work program is modest and largely consists of purchase of reprocessed 3D seismic data.
The rationale for the acreage acquisition of VIC/P74 is based on the likely significant enhancement of the of 3D seismic in the basin as a result of reprocessing being undertaken by service company CGG. Exploration of this region has been previously hampered by severe depth conversion issues related to velocity complexities in the shallow section above the reservoir target.
Recent advances in reprocessing techniques have made significant improvements in relation to this technical issue as evidenced in 3D Oil’s other Gippsland permit VIC/P57.
3D Oil said that the permit may have the potential for significant hydrocarbon accumulations as evidenced by the neighboring Kingfish field. The permit also contains the Omeo gas and condensate discovery.
