Presenting Nicaragua Pacific: The Complete Collection

16/08/2022

Geoex MCG presents Nicaragua Pacific: The Complete Collection. Recently operated and de-risked by Equinor, this region is a promising candidate for new discoveries.

This complete data package (PSTM & PSDM) was expanded in 2022 and incorporates all available data in the region:

  • 3D & 2D data acquired in 2018
  • 2D data acquired in 2015 by Geoex MCG
  • Legacy 2D data acquired between 1973-2003

Geological Prospectivity

The Pacific Coast of Nicaragua comprises the Sandino Basin - a fore-arc basin located in front of the Caribbean Plate of Nicaragua, which was developed during the Cretaceous and contains up to 10,000 meters of Cretaceous and Tertiary sediments. This basin comprises 160 km of the Middle American Trench and extends onshore through the Nicaraguan Depression.

Reservoir and source rocks have been identified in the Sandino basin. The sedimentary infill of Sandino basin represents a prograding succession of sediments grading from deep (pelagic to slope deposits) to shallow marine to transitional continental system.
