RPS Energy<strong>Heritage</strong> <strong>Oil</strong> – Competent Persons Report5.4.2. Mapping<strong>Heritage</strong> has mapped 4 horizons that have been <strong>re</strong>viewed and modified by RPS: Kingfisher P1/M6—interp<strong>re</strong>tation of this unit is fairly robust over <strong>the</strong> 3D a<strong>re</strong>a. Seismic data qualitydrops around <strong>the</strong> faults in Kingfisher but deeper units show <strong>the</strong> general t<strong>re</strong>nd of <strong>the</strong> data. RPS has<strong>re</strong>interp<strong>re</strong>ted <strong>the</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a and modified <strong>the</strong> fault interp<strong>re</strong>tation in <strong>the</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a of Kingfisher Northand Pelican Kingfisher basal sand—Interp<strong>re</strong>tation of this unit is fairly robust over <strong>the</strong> Kingfisher 3D. Again, RPShas modified <strong>the</strong> fault interp<strong>re</strong>tation in <strong>the</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a around Kingfisher North and Pelican Pliocene Light Blue—Interp<strong>re</strong>tation of this unit is good over <strong>the</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a mapped, although mo<strong>re</strong> faultsexist than those interp<strong>re</strong>ted by <strong>Heritage</strong> G: Near Top Zone 2—Seismic quality around <strong>the</strong> leads is very poor, consequently fault and horizoninterp<strong>re</strong>tation is open <strong>to</strong> question. Structu<strong>re</strong>s formed a<strong>re</strong> caused by slight inflections in <strong>the</strong>interp<strong>re</strong>tation around faults that may be seismic artefacts.5.4.3. ProspectivityIn addition <strong>to</strong> Kingfisher, <strong>Heritage</strong> has identified two fur<strong>the</strong>r prospects along <strong>the</strong> basin bounding fault:Kingfisher North and Pelican. RPS has fur<strong>the</strong>r separated <strong>the</strong> Pelican structu<strong>re</strong> in<strong>to</strong> th<strong>re</strong>e segments; PelicanMain, Pelican North and Pelican Shallow. The eastern a<strong>re</strong>a of <strong>the</strong> Pelican prospect is in a complexstructural zone whe<strong>re</strong> <strong>the</strong> basin bounding fault is met by a parallel intra-basinal fault. The Pelican Northand Shallow prospects a<strong>re</strong> separated by significant vertical offset from <strong>the</strong> main Pelican prospect. A fur<strong>the</strong>rprospect, Pelican West, is also a th<strong>re</strong>e-way dip structu<strong>re</strong> but bounds <strong>the</strong> intra-basinal fault that convergeswith <strong>the</strong> main basin-bounding fault at Pelican. <strong>Heritage</strong> has identified a fur<strong>the</strong>r th<strong>re</strong>e leads from 2Dseismic data. These leads a<strong>re</strong> broad, shallow anticlines and 3 way dip closu<strong>re</strong>s against intra-basinal faults.Each prospect and lead in Block 3A has dual targets in <strong>the</strong> Pliocene and Miocene.<strong>Heritage</strong> has used time structu<strong>re</strong> maps <strong>to</strong> determine <strong>the</strong> extent of prospects and a simplified a<strong>re</strong>a-thicknessapproach has been used <strong>to</strong> calculate GRV. RPS has <strong>re</strong>-gridded <strong>the</strong>ir modified TWT horizons and c<strong>re</strong>ateddepth maps using a simple depth conversion using average velocities calculated from <strong>the</strong> time-depth<strong>re</strong>lationship seen at Kingfisher-1.Block 1 lies at <strong>the</strong> Nor<strong>the</strong>rn end of <strong>the</strong> Albert Basin whe<strong>re</strong> <strong>the</strong> Nile exits Lake Albert. The<strong>re</strong> is no wellcontrol in <strong>the</strong> block. The block lies updip of <strong>the</strong> Lake Albert source kitchen, and is at <strong>the</strong> focal point ofpotential hydrocarbon migration from <strong>the</strong> basin depocent<strong>re</strong>. <strong>Heritage</strong> has identified four very shallow (lessthan 600 m) and potentially very large prospects in <strong>the</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a of existing seismic coverage in Block 1. Thesea<strong>re</strong> named Buffalo, Crocodile, Giraffe and Hartebeest (Figu<strong>re</strong> 28).109
