Nalcor is working with global leading partners on strategic studies and projects to evaluate Newfoundland and Labradors frontier slope and deepwater basins for undiscovered oil and gas potential. Please see a list of Studies and Reports currently available covering the 2020 NL01-NEN License Round below. For future updates on Studies and Reports covering this license round, please click here.
In August 2016, Nalcor Energy released the results of a drilling metrics study it had undertaken with industry consulting firm NSB Energy out of St. John’s. The reporting is not a drilling offset study, but rather a compilation of historical reports into a clear, comparable and easily accessible format. This report provides a summary of well data and drilling metrics obtained for 112 of the 167 exploration wells that have been drilled offshore Newfoundland and Labrador since 1966.
Partnered with Riley Geoscience, Nalcor has undertaken the Labrador Biostratigraphy study by selecting a representative set of wells to analyze for Micropalaeontology and Palynology, with emphasis on updating both the interpreted geologic age of the stratigraphy, as well as providing insight on the depositional environment.
The CNLOPB is the regulator for the offshore in Newfoundland and Labrador and they are responsible for the public repository of data. The CNLOPB has built a knowledge base of information for the Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore area. To obtain this information, including well reports, logs, regional reports, etc, please contact the CNLOPB.
