The initial interpretation report of a seismic survey on Block EG-02 has defined prospects in the block that bear similarities to discoveries in Blocks I and O in the Douala Basin.

Covering an area of 1,535 square kilometers, Block EG-02 is in the Douala Basin offshore Equatorial Guinea. A 1,200 square kilometer 3D seismic survey carried out over the area of the block has displayed a number of Tertiary stratigraphic trap leads which could represent an extension of the petroleum system seen in the the Aseng and Alen oil and gas discoveries in Blocks I and O to the northeast of the block.
