As the energy exploration landscape shifts and evolves, so too does the thinking around the basins we investigate. Advancing seismic technology in the last decade has allowed for a fresh perspective on frontier and previously discarded basins, with the shifts in thinking yielding billions of barrels of results.

In this world tour of frontier basins, crustal architecture, source rock presence and reservoir fairways are explored with direct observations from modern, long-offset seismic data. The deepwater Gulf of Papua had its crustal model challenged and reinterpreted thanks to long-offset 2D seismic acquisition, allowing for the imaging of large-scale crustal structures. Beneath the salt of the Scotian Basin, reservoir fairways are imaged in detail and de-risked thanks to Wide Azimuth Seismic Acquisition, and further south to the conjugate Orange-Pelotas Basins, high-resolution 3D and Ultrafar AVO analysis reveals a world-class source rock, observable and mappable on both sides of the margin, despite being proven only on one side to date.
