Oil Finders Lunch

Total exploration in the North Sea
With Mohamed Amine Soudani, North Sea Area Exploration Manager, Total

Within Total, we believe that the North Sea still holds many opportunities for a major company. Consequently we have set up our teams along two strategic axes:

– Value creation through nearby exploration in the vicinity of Total-held acreage. Total can leverage its large operated/non-operated asset footprint in the North Sea to sweep up peripheral prospects. With the recent acquisition of Maersk Oil, Total has become the second largest producer in the North Sea and it has opened up further exploration opportunities in the vicinity of high quality assets.

– Value creation through standalone development: Total believes that there is still potential for finding large discoveries in the North Sea. Although the mature, prolific structures based on existing geological concepts are indeed becoming exhausted, Total strongly believes that commercially-viable resources still to be discovered through new play concepts. Our teams are organized in a way to maximize the understanding and mastering of the basins and to encourage unconventional ideas through a “One Basin, One Team” approach.

The recent discoveries in 2018 in the UK of Glendronach and Glengorm are an illustration of early successes of the strategy. Upcoming exploration program will continue the focus around these two axes.
