Acquisition History

The 3D multi-client seismic of Premier’s two blocks in the Ceará Basin was received in 2016, and 4,000 km2 of broadband final seismic data was processed and received in April 2017.

Premier was actively engaging with platform contractors with available units in the country for a joint well program between Blocks 717 and 661.

In Block 717, Premier plans to drill a well in 2020 targeting the Berimbau and Maraca assets.

In Block 616, the joint venture aims to achieve alignment on the final well location to test the Itarema and Tatajuba assets soon, with drilling scheduled for 2021. The two wells will test over 500 MMbbls of combined gross prospective resources.
