Project summary
The project was carried out to identify the prospects of the territory for the presence of hydrocarbon deposits in the absence of reference objects in the immediate vicinity of the surveyed area.
The main result of the project was an increase in the capitalization of license areas from the level of equality of expenses and income to the level of investment attractiveness of their development.
- Project Name Search and delineation of hydrocarbon deposits in the south of the Tyumen region
- Client OJSC Tumen Oil
- Category Aerial imaging, Exploration
- Feature Absence of a close reference territory
- Location Tumen region
- Year 2011
INITIAL CONDITIONS
License blocks in Tumen region with low investment attractiveness and capitalization around zero.
PURPOSE AND GOAL
Multi-zone aerial imaging by “Eagle” scanner to identify areas in the surveyed territory that are promising for the presence of hydrocarbon deposits.
The goal was to increase investment attractiveness of client’s assets.
PROBLEM AND SOLUTION
The client set a task to identify the prospects for the development of the Severo-Aromashevsky, Yuzhno-Aromashevsky and Yuzhno-Sorokinsky license blocks in the Tyumen region.
The task of remote sensing for hydrocarbons was complicated by the absence of known or developed oil or gas fields in the immediate vicinity of the surveyed territory.
CPNT decided to shoot a reference object that is not located in the immediate vicinity of a given territory. The Tevrizskoye gas condensate field, located about 100 km from the northeastern border of the Yuzhno-Sorokinsky license area, was used as a reference object. Subsequent thematic processing was carried out taking into account information about the nature of anomalies detected at the Tevrizskoye gas condensate field.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of aerial survey and thematic processing of the results, conclusions were drawn about the prospects of the studied license areas for the presence of hydrocarbons. Comparison of remote sensing data and geophysical information made it possible to assess the resource potential and investment attractiveness of one of the sites by DeGolyer and McNaughton Corp.
The main result of the project was significant increase in the capitalization of clients assets to the level of investment attractiveness of their development ($44.494 million).
