Waking the Sleeping Giants

OYL.U

USGS Predict 6 Giant Oilfields • USGS estimate 15.3 billion barrels oil 42 tcf gas • ranked 2 nd as under explored basin

Guyana/Suriname Basin

• • estimate 117 oil fields 24 elephants > 100 million barrels

Venezuela Guyana Suriname

• of which 6 are giants > 500 million barrels CGX

Regional Activity • Trinidad • 24 tcf reserves • Deltana Platform • 38 - 80 tcf potential • 5 new concessions • $41 mm bonuses • Tambaredjo • OOIP 900 billion barrels • 174 billion barrels recoverable CGX

Feb 2003 Visit to Suriname CGX

Land Rig - Tambaredjo • 14,000 bopd • 625 wells • Drilling 75 wells per year CGX

Our Concessions • 6.6 mm acres gross • 4.5 mm acres net • Corentyne Block (100%) • Offshore • Eagle • Wishbone • Annex •Onshore • Georgetown Block (25%) CGX

Area of Overlapping Border Claims • Guyana claims a border of N33E • Suriname claims a border of N10E • Inability to resolve differences has frozen exploration in the basin CGX

Bilateral Negotiations not Progressing • Impediments to a Bilateral Solution – “strength of feeling by the respective populations – the firm and apparently intractable positions adopted by both sides – the history of past efforts” • “Easier for the people of both countries to accept settlement terms, which are arrived at by processes and procedures, regarded as independent and/or which employ a judicial approach” (Rashleigh Jackson) CGX

A Logical Resolution • For maritime space – both countries are signatories to and have ratified the UN Law of the Sea Convention – Where complications such as islands do not exist, this process can be fairly expedient • For land boundary – the OAS has a mechanism for helping member states to solve border problems CGX

Technical Risk – Exploring for Turbidite Giants • Source rock / timing – 95% • Seal – 75% • Reservoir – 50% • Structure – 75% • Oil vs gas – 75% • Overall Probability of Success – 20% CGX

Source Rock & Timing – 95%

Canje Formation • 2-6% TOC • > 300 metres thick • mature – 95% in oil window • oil in Tambaredjo typed to Canje Source • equivalent age to La Luna source rock in Venezuela

CGX

Seal – 75%

Abary #1 • 6000’ shale seal • 23‘ turbidite sand • mud kick at 2000 bpd • 34.5

o API oil in mud • Shell drilled in 1974 Eagle and Wishbone • seismic tied to Abary • turbidite sand thickness greater than 600 feet

CGX

Reservoir – 50%

• main risk is sand quality • over 5000’ onshelf sand in Horseshoe #1; • Oligocene turbidite fans: Eagle and Wishbone; • Turonian source rock: mature Canje formation over 300’ thick • Miocene seal: over 6000’ of shale in Abary #1

CGX

Eagle Wishbone

Structure – 75%

• Top of fan at Eagle and Wishbone marked by coincident amplitude and AVO anomalies; • Flat spot is interpreted as oil-water contact; • Draping in Miocene shales is observable • Eagle anomaly is about 13 km in width and Wishbone about 7 km; • Eagle defined on 8 other strike lines at 2 km intervals.

Oil vs Gas – 75%

• Abary #1 tested oil • buoyancy considerations over 1700 feet of structure • Amplitude and AVO anomalies terminate simultaneously at interpreted oil-water contact and at updip pinchout on paleo-shelf; • Eagle anomaly is over 15 km in length.

Turbidite Fan Targets – 20% Probability of Success

• Geological model equivalent to Campos Basin, Brazil • Similar age to turbidite reservoirs in East Venezuela Basin and Trinidad • “Giant” and “near-giant” size

Geochemical Surveys • GMT, Gore • Micro seepage vs Seepage • Quantification and maturity of source • Aeromag, gravity • Phase 1 Capital 0.5 MM$ US explore using various structure CGX

Seismic, then drilling • Use geochemical and potential fields to define seismic targets and and follow up with drilling • Reduce amount and costs for seismic and focus on drill targets to reduce cycle CGX
