Central European Petroleum Ltd operates the Wolin block in the
western part of the Polish sector of the Baltic Sea. Following the
acquisition of 3D seismic and re-assessment of the existing vintage
data, the company is preparing to appraise the area, targeting the
Upper Permian (Zechstein) Main Dolomite reservoir developed in
shallow-water facies. Two new wells - Wolin West 1 and Wolin East 1
- are planned on Europe's largest yet-to-be tested Permian-age
structure, on-trend with an already discovered gas field.
With the potential of >300 MMboe, the Wolin project is about
to reinvigorate activities in the region dormant for over three
decades. Located next to strategically important gas
infrastructure, the project is well positioned to change Poland's
hydrocarbon production profile once successfully developed.
As the technical preparations for the drilling operations
advance, Dr. Peter Putnam, Chairman and CEO of Central European
Petroleum Ltd, talks about this potential game-changing project for
Poland's gas sector to IHS Markit's Piotr Gawenda, Associate
Director for Europe Regional Research.
