Since the discovery of the East Sadak (Oymantepe) oil field by AME in the Eruh area in the city of Siirt, this area has been the subject of extensive geological and geophysical surveys. M47-b1, b2 exploration license offers the opportunity to explore commercial Cretaceous plays in the Eruh oil-producing trend. Ongoing seismic operations will assist in identifying previously unknown possibilities at Reşan exploration license, providing geophysical support for the potential identified in the Siirt province. Analysis of seismic attributes extracted from interpreted geologic surfaces have been used in combination with well data to interpret the geologic evolution of the petroleum system.
In the oil fields of the platform region area in southeast Türkiye (Batman-Siirt areas), oil is being produced from upper Cretaceous Mardin group carbonates (Karababa and Derdere formations), Beloka, Garzan, lower Sinan formations. The main objective of the Reşan exploration license is to test the hydrocarbon potential of Upper Cretaceous aged Beloka and Mardin Group carbonates. It is believed that the source-reservoir-seal rocks and suitable oil generation time exist in the license area. In addition, oil shows observed in the nearby wells, such as some Basur wells around the license area show a petroleum system exists in the area. From this analysis, Başur-3 exploration well was spudded on 26.06.2021, however drilled down to 1800 meters it did not penetrate the target reservoir horizons. The well reached TD (total depth) at depth of 1813 m on 31/07/2021 in Lower Germav Formation. Recently shot 2D seismic will inform the next steps on this license.
