Gulf Coast ``Sub-Salt`` play exploration strategies
Conference
·
OSTI ID:136611
Successful exploration strategies in the new offshore Gulf Coast Mio-Pliocene oil and gas (``Sub-Salt-) play will include the entire Petroleum System involved from pre-Miocene source bed deposition onward. On the shelf, primary accumulations occurred in pre-Late Miocene time and reservoirs; in deep-water areas, hydrocarbon generation, migration, and entrapment occurred just during the last few million years. In both scenarios, deep (pre-Miocene) structural configuration is decisive for the selection of most prospective acreage blocks, using established regional hydrocarbon migration principles.
