Invictus Upbeat on Mukuyu Prospect in Zimbabwe

Friday, May 13, 2022

Invictus Energy reports that seismic inversion results show potential for multiple stacked hydrocarbon-bearing zones in the Mukuyu Prospect in Zimbabwe.

The company says further quantitative analysis (QA) studies continue to provide support for the presence of potential hydrocarbons in the Mukuyu structure. The results from a seismic inversion/QA study indicate that the section immediately below the Horizon 200 target is likely to comprise multiple stacked hydrocarbon-bearing zones, ranging in thickness from 40 to 80 meters. Accordingly, this has necessitated an update to the drilling program to include a diverter system for the shallow sections of the Mukuyu-1 well.

Highlights follow:

• Seismic Inversion and further quantitative analysis studies indicate strong potential for stacked pay intervals at shallow target level in Post Dande (Horizon 200)
• Likely to comprise of multiple stacked hydrocarbon-bearing zones from 40-80m thick
• 500 Horizon Target (Upper Angwa) demonstrates extensive flat spot across southern flank of structure
• New PSDM (Pre-Stack Depth Migration) studies show anomalous, low interval velocity zones, correlative with target intervals within structural closure in Upper Angwa primary target (Horizon 500 & 600) potentially indicative of gas fill
