6.00 Technical Presentation – Into Africa – Origin’s Kenyan Odyssey
About the Presentation:
In 2006, Origin Energy farmed into exploration blocks L8 and L9 in Kenya. These blocks are almost wholly
offshore covering approx 12,000sq km of the Lamu Basin, a passive margin depo-centre formed during the break-up
of Gondwanaland. As part of the farmin arrangement Origin agreed to acquire several thousand km of 2D seismic
data, which it completed in January 2007. Processing of this data is now complete and interpretation is
underway. The talk will cover a smorgasbord of operational and technical aspects of this (ad)venture. The talk
borrows from the recent PESA presentation in April on the same topic, but focuses more on the geophysical aspects..
About the Speaker:
Randall Taylor is Chief Geophysicist for Origin Energy.
