The event will be held from 2‐4 October in Luanda, Angola. The last three decades have played host to Angola’s deep water exploration efforts, which are generally viewed as extremely successful. For the most part exploration efforts were restricted to the Congo Basin. From the early 1990’s to 2014, in excess of 110 discoveries were made yielding over 20 billion barrels of oil equivalent within the basin. By 2010, wildcats had a better than 50% success ratio however, the size of discoveries had declined significantly from those made in the mid 1990’s. The Exploration of the Congo Basin was followed by the pre‐salt exploration of the Kwanza Basin triggered in part by the pre‐salt successes in the Santos and Campos Basins offshore Brazil. Although some pre‐salt exploration within the Kwanza basin had taken place prior 2000, a large pre‐salt exploration campaign formally started in 2011 with contracts for new exploration acreage within the Angolan Deep Water Congo and Kwanza/Benguela Basins. Discoveries by Maersk and then a string of discoveries by Cobalt seemed to suggest that the Kwanza Basin was likely to yield similar results to those of the Santos and Campos Basins. Disappointingly after the initial successes, the subsequent series of wells were unsuccessful, sub‐commercial or encountered gas and condensate rather than oil in large commercial volumes. In addition, a number of wells encountered CO2, sometimes associated with dry gas or even condensate. First EAGE/ASGA Workshop on Petroleum Exploration 2‐4 October 2017, Luanda, Angola Following the workshop’s theme, the aim will be to address some of the challenges faced by Angolan Deep Water Explorers. The event constitutes a golden opportunity for geoscientists to brain‐storm over issues related to exploration offshore West Africa, including but not restricted to: Pre‐Salt imaging, CO2 predictions, Operational efficiency, the new frontier Namibe Basin, the Ultra Deep Water Congo Basin and the analysis of the recent pre‐salt campaign, which provided a different outcome to expectations, with possible technical strategies that could prove helpful in replicating the success of pre‐salt exploration in the Santos and Campos Basin in Brazil.
