Energean: Block 2 Seismic Survey Completed – About 2,200 sq km ‘Extremely High Quality’

Energean has announced the completion of the 3D seismic survey in the Block 2 offshore plot, in the Northwest Ionian Sea.

The survey obtained data from approximately 2,200 square kilometers which – as the company points out – are of particularly high quality and give the best possible picture of the subsoil in the surveyed area.

“Their processing and interpretation, which will follow in the coming months, will enable Energean to assess the size and prospects of the hydrocarbon potential and potential reserves and to identify targets that could be explored by drilling,” he adds. .

He also emphasizes that:

-The survey on plot 2 was the fourth seismic survey carried out by the company from 2009 to date and which was completed without any environmental or other incident and in absolute safety conditions.

-During the investigation, a total of 5 specialized vessels were mobilized, led by the seismographic Ramform Hyperion of PGS, equipped with the most sophisticated equipment for investigations of this kind. In addition, three Marine Mammal Observers as well as two Sound Recorders participated in the survey, in order to take the prescribed preventive measures in cases of detection of cetaceans within the safety zone provided for by the approved Environmental Action Plan. At the same time, specialized personnel were in constant communication with the fishermen of the area, in order to avoid both the obstruction of the investigation based on the NAVTEX issued by the Navy and any problems in their activity.

Also, during the investigation, participating vessels assisted the competent port authorities in the safe docking of vessels found to be transporting refugees in adverse weather conditions.

Finally, Energean notes that it remains committed to the research and exploitation of natural resources in the areas in which it operates, for the benefit of our national economy, local communities and citizens, as well as that the research and exploitation of our natural wealth requires significant investment, time, effective administration and timeless political will.
