摘要

With only six wells drilled prior to Tullow Oil's entry into Kenya, limited knowledge of the subsurface geology and high uncertainties in geological properties presented an immense challenge to drilling operations in the country's remote rift basins. The associated mobilization and operational costs in a region lacking an established oil industry or related infrastructure resulted in ~$55MM onshore wells. Tullow Oil now operates five exploration blocks, all in and around the East African Rift System (EARS). Prior to the agreement, the blocks were held by Africa Oil with minor interests held by Lion Energy and Afren. The farm in agreement apportioned 50% equity to Tullow Oil in all the exploration Blocks and 50% equity to Africa Oil Corporation (AOC) in Blocks 10BB, 10BA, 13T and 12A. Block 10A has since been relinquished and Block 12B acquired with 50% equity. Tullow Oil is the nominated operator in all the other blocks. In the Lake Albert Basins in Uganda, oil has been discovered in geological settings which are similar to geological settings in the Turkana Basins in Kenya, and particularly similar to those found at Ngamia-1/lA and at Loperot-1, the first well to be drilled in the Lokichar Basin, Kenya (1992). The geographical location and crust thickness provides a perfect potential petroleum system. The geological drilling hazards are not currently well understood due to the sparseness of drilling which has been undertaken and the compartmentalisation of the structure.
