Zanzibar's Oil and Gas Frontier

ZPRA has partnered with SLB be the exclusive provider of more than 10,000 linear km of 2D-seismic data, covering the eight offshore blocks on offer. This represents a unique opportunity to be one of the first to explore a largely untapped frontier region with significant hydrocarbon potential.

The offshore Pemba-Zanzibar sub-basin is located along the East African coast. There is significant evidence of a functioning petroleum system in the form of numerous oil seeps, as well as several exploration wells with hydrocarbon shows. Several different play types ranging in age, and with promising oil and gas potential, have been observed in the basin.

The eight bid round blocks range in size from 2,846 square km to 5,666 square km, and are located in water depths ranging from 300 m to 2,500 m.

The 2D-seismic data and prospectivity assessment produced by SLB would help you accelerate your evaluation of the basin.
