Azinor Catalyst Ltd acquired 51% and operatorship in licence P2179 from MOL on 14 November 2018. The licence contains the Hinson prospect in block 21/25c which Azinor is planning to drill in 2019.   Hinson is located in the West Central Graben near the Gannet complex. The prospect is defined as a large stratigraphic trap with a pinch-out of reservoir sands to the north. Hinson has estimated gross unrisked Pmean prospective resources of 178 MMboe. The primary reservoir target is the Upper Jurassic basin floor mass-flow sands of the Kimmeridge Clay Formation, sourced from the northern and western platform areas. Analysis of 3D Geostreamer data indicates the presence of a direct hydrocarbon indicator (DHI) associated with the prospect. This is supported by offset well modelling work and is the focus of the seismic reprocessing and quantitative interpretation.  Interest in P2179 is held solely Azinor Catalyst Limited.
