Value of the Corentyne Block?What Artificial Intelligence says, when asked about the value of the Corentyne Block. In reading this, it surely appears that Corentyne is an extenstion of the Stabroek Block.
If so, and Big Oil agrees, what would be the value of the Corentyne block in your opinion? More or less than the value of the Bahia port? Which I surely think should bring, at minimum, the very rock bottom price of the $1Bil cost to build. But, easily could go for twice that or more.
The Corentyne oil block in offshore Guyana has several noteworthy geological features:
-
Seismic Data and Prospects:
- State-of-the-art 3D seismic data was acquired over the northern region of the Corentyne Block, enhancing its prospectivity.
- New information led to the identification of multiple low-risk prospects within the block.
- The recent discoveries in adjacent blocks (Stabroek and Block 58) have positive implications for Corentyne’s exploration potential.
-
Oil Trapping Mechanisms:
- Oil has migrated into the Corentyne area, similar to Exxon blocks.
- Oil is trapped in both sandstones (like Liza) and limestones (like Ranger).
- It’s found in Cretaceous (e.g., Maka Central, Sapakara West, Kwaskwasi) and Tertiary (e.g., Hammerhead) aged rocks.

Recent Discoveries:
-
Kawa-1 Well:
- The Kawa-1 well, CGX’s first discovery in Corentyne, struck light oil and gas condensate in May 2022.

These discoveries add to Guyana’s growing prominence as an attractive oil and gas destination. In summary, the Corentyne Block holds substantial exploration potential and value. And its geological features make it an exciting area for oil and gas exploration. 132"
