There remains potential to be unlocked in the onshore UK but it requires the combination of technical and commercial solutions to better understand how this can be achieved.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Hannon Westwood\u2019s UK Onshore Oil & Gas Potential \u2013 A Comprehensive Review<\/em> provides an overview to the onshore industry on how different areas of the UK might respond to a field development or exploration well in close proximity to existing settlements. Maps outlining National Parks, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Sites of Scientific Interest combined with mapping of population density and GDP per household give a clear indication of which areas are likely to be amenable to exploration activities<\/p>\n

Key petroleum system elements within the UK landward basins of highest interest for petroleum exploration are outlined. Further insights are provided to assist with understanding where and why the current hydrocarbon accumulations have been found.\u00a0 Well logs of the key reservoir sections are also provided. There remains potential to be unlocked in the onshore UK but it requires the combination of technical and commercial solutions to better understand how this can be achieved.<\/p>\n

The report outlines the source, migration, traps, seals and reservoirs of the UK’s onshore basins that are prospective for hydrocarbons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Where appropriate, production histories are used to illustrate likely performance of prospects generated and successfully drilled up. Commercial and company aspects are discussed and the activities of the main companies active across the UK are outlined with the aim of clearing the first hurdle of potential deal making.<\/p>\n
