Chariot Oil & Gas has launched its 3D seismic survey offshore Nambia.
The project, which is being carried out with its partners AziNam, NAMCOR and Ignitus, will cover 2,600 sq km.
A company spokesperson said: “Following the analysis of its survey of approximately 1,700 line km of 2D seismic data acquired on the north western flank of the licence in 2015, the Company has identified several significant additional leads within the Upper Cretaceous deep water clastic turbidite system.
“Whilst there are drill ready prospects already identified in the Central Blocks, this 3D survey will enable Chariot and its partners to mature these new leads and further develop its inventory in this region, which it believes to contain giant prospectivity.”
The survey is expected to take 40 days.
