In a two-hour moderated session, they will share their exploration roadmap that discovered billions of barrels of oil in a new and unknown petroleum system. The discussion will address the exploration challenges in the context of Business Trends in 2019.
In a post-downturn oil-price cycle, does the future of exploration require a fundamental re-think or can exploration regain its status as an engine for growth? If so, how might that be realized?
In late 2006 and early 2007, a small team of Private Equity-backed, proven explorers, embarked on building a top-quartile exploration portfolio. Within 3 years, the team had negotiated and secured what was determined to be the most prolific (operated) portfolio position in the Kwanza basin, offshore Angola.
How was the success achieved given the strong IOC competition (ENI, Exxon, Statoil, BP, Total, etc.) by a startup company with constrained resources?
Mike and Scot will share their approach and provide an explicit roadmap to stimulate paradigm-shifts in pursuit of future exploration value creation.
After the session, we will host a reception and networking 5:30-7:30 pm at
