NGA OPL 249 | PGS

This popular 3D seismic survey is aimed to provide an understanding of this highly prolific Niger Delta and further highlight its considerable remaining exploration potential. Additional information with regard to each individual survey is available upon request.

It is located over the licensed block OML 140 and the open block OPL 248 in the deep waters of Niger Delta at the western limit of the compressional domain. Large anticlinal structures created by toe-thrusts and shale walls detaching on the Akata shale hold significant potential.

The 3D data also shows a number of amplitude anomalies, for example amplitude brightening and flattening on structural highs. Fields and hydrocarbons discoveries within the OML 140 such as Nsiko, Nsiko North and Ofigbo proved the presence of working petroleum systems.
