**Seabiscuit
Geological
Summary**
-
§ Nearby
wells
have
confirmed
hundreds
of
feet
of
high
quality
reservoir
sandstones,
and
the proposed
well
is
expected
to
penetrate
the
objec,ve
forma,on
approximately
500
feet
higher
than the
closest
well
which
is
4
km’s
away
and
produced
gas
and
condensate
from
the
very
top
of
the objec,ve
sec,on -
§ All
of
the
nearby
wells
have
encountered
thick,
high
quality
porous
sandstones,
indica,ng
that
the risk
of
poor
reservoir
rock
is
low -
§ Seismic
interpreta,on
indicates
that
the
reservoir
rocks
were
in
a
trapping
posi,on
in
,me
to receive
hydrocarbon
charge,
and
this
is
supported
by
other
discoveries
along
trend -
§ Once
formed,
the
Seabiscuit
trap
was
buried
beneath
an
es,mated
8500
O.
of
impermeable
shale, which
formed
an
ideal
seal
to
keep
the
oil
and
gas
in
place -
§ The
targeted
objec,ves
at
Seabiscuit
are
the
same
age
as
those
found
produc,ve
in Old
Ocean Field (4.9
Tcf)
approximately
53
km
northeast
of
the
prospect,
and East
Bay
City
Field (500
Bcf) -
approximately
43
km
to
the
northeast.
The
latest
discovery
along
trend
at
the Silverspoon Field , located
approximately
24
km
northeast
of
Seabiscuit,
came
on
line
at
over
18
MMcfd
and
has produced
9.9
Bcf
and
100,000
barrels
of
oil
in
