Newfoundland Oil Exploration
Novoco's Logo

There are plenty of basins of similiar geology to that around the Hibernia field. When the Hibernia exploration boom was in full swing we concentrated on the shallow water around Hibernia. But the same petroleum maturation, confined rift basin structure, and depositional environment exist for many neighbouring basins, and many prospects close to Hibernia have yet to be tested.

If Petro-Braz can economically produce their deeper oil fields, I think Newfoundland can use their proven technology to supply New York with oil from shallower fields.
