Corcel Plc 是一家专注于安哥拉和巴西的勘探和生产公司，该公司很高兴地宣布，其承包商 Metatek Group 已完成对 KON-16 区块的增强型全张量梯度测量 (eFTG) 的数据采集阶段，该阶段最初于 2024 年 6 月 7 日宣布。Corcel 通过其子公司 Atlas Petroleum Exploration Worldwide Ltd. 拥有并运营 KON-16 的 35% 股份。

随着数据收集工作的完成，公司的重点转向处理和解释，预计将持续到 2024 年第四季度。公司希望这项工作能够提供高度精确的地质表征，这对于进一步开发 KON-16 的勘探前景至关重要，当与现有的 2D 地震和井数据完全结合时，将使公司能够对这个 1,000 平方公里大区块中的高品位潜在区域进行评估，并在 2025 年设计一个有针对性的 2D 地震采集计划，公司打算最终导致在该区块钻探自 2000 年以来的第一口新井。 20 世纪 60 年代。Corcel

首席执行官 Scott Gilbert 评论道：
“我们很高兴完成了 KON-16 区块 eFTG 调查的数据采集阶段。这是我们勘探工作的一个重要里程碑，为我们提供了重要的数据集，有助于我们进一步了解这个大型未充分勘探区块的地下结构和勘探前景。”

关于 KON-16 区块：
Corcel 拥有 KON-16 的运营和控制权，KON-16 是陆上宽扎盆地的一个大型区块（1000 平方公里）。KON-16 受益于 2010-2012 年高质量的区域规模现代 2D 地震采集，该采集发现了之前未成像的重要盐后和盐下勘探前景。尽管 KON-16 区域规模很大，但区块内只钻了一口井（Tuenza #1，1960 年），因此人们认为仍有巨大的潜力。勘探范围包括类似于附近托比亚斯 (Tobias) 和加林达 (Galinda) 油田的浅层含油目标，以及类似于深水宽扎盆地发现（TotalEnergies Kaminho 项目）的较深盐下油田。

Corcel Plc, the pan Angola-Brazil focused exploration and production company, is pleased to announce that the its contractor, Metatek Group, has completed the acquisition of data phase of the Enhanced Full Tensor Gradiometry Survey ("eFTG") on Block KON-16 as originally announced on 7 June 2024. KON-16 is 35% owned and operated by Corcel, through its subsidiary Atlas Petroleum Exploration Worldwide Ltd.

With data collection efforts now completed, the Company's focus moves to processing and interpretation, which is expected to extend through Q4 2024. The Company looks for this work to deliver highly accurate geological representations of critical interest for further developing the prospectivity of KON-16, which when fully integrated with the existing 2D seismic and well data, will enable the Company to high grade prospective areas in this large 1,000 sq km block and design a focused 2D seismic acquisition program in 2025 which the Company intends will ultimately lead to the drilling of the first new well on the block since the 1960s.

Corcel CEO Scott Gilbert commented:
"We are very pleased with the completion of the acquisition of data phase of the eFTG survey on Block KON-16. This is a significant milestone in our exploration efforts, providing us with an important dataset that will help refine our understanding of the subsurface structure and prospectivity of this large, underexplored block."

About Block KON-16:
Corcel hold an operated and controlling interest in KON-16 which is a large (1000 sq. km) block in the onshore Kwanza Basin. KON-16 has benefited from high quality regional scale modern 2D seismic acquisition in 2010-2012 which identified significant post and pre-salt prospectivity that was previously not imaged. Despite the large scale of the KON-16 area, only 1 well has been drilled inside the block (Tuenza #1, in 1960) and therefore significant potential is believed to remain. Prospectivity ranges from shallow oil-prone targets analogous to the nearby Tobias and Galinda fields, to the deeper pre-salt play which is analogous to the deep water Kwanza Basin discoveries (TotalEnergies Kaminho Project).
