Executive summary: Of the eleven wells drilled in Jamaica, all but one encountered oil and or gas shows. There are onshore gas seeps. Three Petroleum Systems have been identified, the most important of which was sourced from a middle Eocene pro-delta sequence. Hydrocarbons from this high quality source, which is both oil- and gas-prone and occupies a 700 metre interval, are present in the Content-1 well. Southwards extension into the Walton Basin immediately to the south of Jamaica is predicted. A related source sequence is developed along the Caribbean margin of Honduras and Nicaragua. Associated reservoir objectives are sands within a middle Eocene, delta-associated sequence, and, more especially, newly defined reef systems and their detrital products. 50% fill of the carbonate targets mapped so far would imply reserves of 2.8 BBO or 10.6 TCF gas.

Geological reconstructions suggest that the delta and pro-delta sequences were associated with a major river that flowed eastwards from Central America. Excellent analogies exist with the now prolific Talang Akar (sand) and Baturaja (carbonate) plays of western Indonesia. Regional gravity suggests that this play extends westwards through the shallow waters along the crest of the Nicaragua Rise to the limit of the Jamaica EEZ.

The South Coast of Jamaica and the onshore Montpelier-Newmarket Trough also offer possibilities. A related, but older delta play involving Paleocene source rocks is expected to emerge in the John Crow Belt in the extreme east of the island. Additional potential is offered by a newly identified oil-prone Cretaceous source.

Smackover-type (Oxfordian) oils that were encountered in wells in the Windsor area of the North Coast resemble those from Belmopan in Belize. A review of the regional geology suggests that the block on which these wells lie was accreted onto Jamaica from Yucatán in the late Cretaceous.

Editors note

This supplementary report was assembled in response to the Petroleum Corporation of Jamaica’s requirement to provide a further understanding of the petroleum potential of the southern offshore of Jamaica following the recent acquisition of new seismic, gravity, magnetics and other data.

This guide builds on the understanding developed by the JEBCO Alliance during their first formal round report completed in 2005, and is designed to complement the work of PCJ consultant Joe Boztas’ seismic interpretation completed in January 2010.

The guide has been designed not to repeat the discussion in the two aforementioned reports and as such it is necessary to use all three documents and associated data in conjunction to obtain a more complete grounding.

1. INTERPRETATION REPORT - Geophysical Evaluation Of CGGVeritas Multi Client Data Offshore Jamaica, Deep Water

Summary:

The Jamaican southern offshore blocks covered by the 2009 CGGVeritas multi client survey with a variable density of 10 to 40 km grid, offer good primary reflection events some 8 to 10kms below the sea floor. At least nine(9) structural leads and a number of stratigraphic opportunities as reefs and onlap plays exit in water depths of 1800 to 2200m. The structural closures range from 80 to 600 sq kms and could potentially contain multi-billion barrels of oil.

There is a thickening of the sedimentary sequence in the southern blocks which accord with the postulated transport direction by the JEBCO study. Extrapolating from the Arawak and Pedro Bank wells the deeper section with onlap/pinch out geometries could include clastic sediments. Nine (9) dip/fault closed leads defined on the data, as well as numerous reef and amplitude plays exist. Many of the main leads offer good top seal potential.

This report is approximately 50 pages including 35 figures
