The exploration for, and production of, petroleum resources commences with the solicitation, evaluation and award of exclusive rights to a designated geographic area or geologic zone. A bidding round for petroleum exploration is a technical as well as a commercial process. The proposed work program in terms of seismic acquisition and exploration drilling is mainstay of the technical considerations. Other technical considerations include the availability of existing seismic data, well data for previous drilling programs, discoveries in adjacent blocks, and relinquishment obligations. Commercial elements include the budget for the exploration programme and the fiscal terms that would apply should a discovery result in production.
