Explora Petroleum will evaluate key areas of the Norwegian Continental Shelf on a play fairway basis.

Play fairway analysis focuses on identifying the positive characteristics for predicting areas which contain the best combination of reservoir and petroleum charge with favourable trapping mechanisms.

Areas identified with a high chance of success in the play fairway mapping will then be worked in detail utilising the appropriate techniques. Application and integration of state of the art technology will be utilised to the fullest extent possible in identifying, developing and selecting prospects for drilling.

Explora Petroleum recognises that patience and a long-term perspective is required to be a competitive explorer on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

The company will position itself by taking a “big company approach” in implementing advanced technology, combined with the nimbleness of a small entrepreneurial company to enhance its competitiveness – the best of both worlds.
