Following the blue whale, the devil shark… Expectations for ‘5.1 billion barrels’ of additional reserves in the East Sea
[Break News Pohang] Reporter Park Young-jae = A service report has been submitted stating that up to 5.17 billion barrels of additional gas and oil are buried in the Ulleung Basin, where the East Sea deep-sea gas field development project (Blue Whale Project) is underway.
The government has formed a team of experts to begin the process of verifying the contents of the report. The total estimated gas and oil reserves in the East Sea deep sea are expected to exceed 19 billion barrels.
According to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Korea National Oil Corporation on the 2nd, ActGeo, a deep-sea technology assessment company in the United States, submitted a service report titled ‘Ulleung Basin Additional Prospective Assessment’ containing these contents to the Korea National Oil Corporation in December of last year. ActGeo is the company that conducted the physical exploration and analysis of the ‘Blue Whale Prospective Structure’, which the government announced in June of last year could contain up to 14 billion barrels of oil and gas.
The report included the discovery of 14 additional promising structures with high gas and oil potential as a result of additional analysis of the Ulleung Basin area. The estimated reserves of the 14 promising structures are estimated to be between a minimum of 680 million barrels and a maximum of 5.17 billion barrels. This is the ‘exploration resource amount’ measured through physical exploration and geological analysis without drilling.
The name of the promising structure with the largest exploration resource amount is said to be ‘Goblin shark.’ It is analyzed that there are up to 1.29 billion barrels of gas and oil, and the exploration success rate is similar to that of the blue whale at 20%.
However, since the Korea National Oil Corporation has only received the service results, it seems that it will be able to confirm more specific reserves and potential only after conducting detailed additional verification with experts. The size of the reserves may change depending on the verification results. This verification is being conducted mainly by domestic experts such as academic societies.
