PGS is offering data coverage of several blocks newly approved for licensing in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil.
The Amazonita, Safira Oeste, and Safira Leste blocks, which lie in one of Brazil’s most prolific offshore basins, have been approved by both ANP and CNPE for the upcoming Permanent Offer Sharing Round.
‘The Santos Basin blocks were nominated by PGS after a meticulous assessment of the comprehensive Santos Vision dataset, to evaluate prospectivity and the viability of identified prospects,’ said PGS in a statement. ‘These blocks exhibit clear carbonate build-up on structural highs, four-way dip closures, with well-imaged leads beneath a salt seal, and a proximal source kitchen. Evidence from the Parati and Dolomita Sul wells also indicates the presence of hydrocarbons within the Safira Leste and Oeste areas.’
