This exclusive survey coincides with the Gabon Ministry of Mines, Energy and Petroleum contract with Schlumberger/Geco-Prakla to shoot 10,000 kilometres of 2D non-exclusive seismic survey in Gabon's ultra deep water beginning in November. The survey is expected to firm up Lower Madiela prospects in the Anton Marin permit similar to those found in the N'Kossa and Moho discoveries of the Congo and to confirm Tertiary leads in the Anton and Astrid Marin permits similar to the recent plays in Cabinda and Angola, namely Chevron's D-14 and Elf's Girassol and Dalia discoveries.
