The Suriname-Guyana Basin is characterized by the presence of a world-class source rock of Cenomanian-Turonian age, the Canje Formation. This source rock is the lateral equivalent of the La Luna shale in Venezuela. Oil from this source has been produced from the Tambaredjo, Calcutta and Tambaredjo Northwest oil-fields onshore Suriname.
The area of active oil generation is estimated to be 4400- 9000 square km, and the migration distance 150-200 km. The charge expectation is 4.5 Billion bbls and unrisked STOIIP 8.2 Billion bbls. |
