Chariot Oil & Gas has contracted a 3,500 sq km 3D seismic survey over Block C19 offshore Mauritania to be carried out by Fugro-Geoteam in water depths ranging 30-2,000m
Acquisition is expected to start on November 15 and take about 90 days to complete. It will cover the southern portion of the block containing an extension of both Tertiary and Cretaceous age deep marine sandstone plays that are anticipated to be charged by the same mid-Cretaceous age source rocks proven effective by fields and discoveries in adjacent acreage.
