Onshore Oil Window

Hot Creek Valley, Nevada, sits within the “oil window” over thermally mature source rock that is ideal for oil generation.This latest development helps Chainman Oil and Gas as it allows them to carefully take advantage of the region’s oil exploration capabilities. 

Highlights

  • Acreage adjacent to the first oil discovery in Nevada in 30 years, yielding light oil
  • Extensive and methodical geological surveys have identified 2 large anomalies with reservoir target zones, structurally similar to the Grant Canyon play in Railroad Valley
  • Initial targets surveyed and ready to begin drilling process
  • Minimal development costs, taking advantage of recent expenditure on data gathering and drilling activities nearby
  • Custom well designs will harness lessons identified during previous drills in Hot Creek Valley
  • Ideally positioned to capitalize on a major oil field at an early stage, with very low uplift costs to the refinery and easy logistical access
  • Further adjoining 2000 acres acquired during 2018 with excellent potential. 

Why Nevada?

A Brief History

  • In 2011 Chainman Oil & Gas LLC was formed to identify oil and gas prospects in Nevada
  • Initial scoping activity, surveys and lease applications covered a vast area across Nevada: Railroad Valley, White River Valley, Big Smokey Valley and Hot Creek Valley
  • Attention was drawn to Hot Creek Valley by the pioneering activities of US Oil & Gas PLC
  • Chainman began their own research into the area, including gravity magnetic studies and re-interpretation of existing well logs
  • In 2012, Chainman leased ten sections of land in Hot Creek Valley. Over the next three years Chainman surveyed each section in detail on the ground. After multiple layers of surveying were completed, two sections of land stood out
  • By focusing further survey efforts on these two sections, two large anomalies were identified. These geologically mirror the Grant Canyon prospect in Railroad Valley
  • Having studied the stratigraphy in detail, Chainman has developed in-depth understanding of the local geology using state of the art technologies to identify prime drilling locations
  • Chainman is ready to begin its next and most exciting chapter.

The unit cost for extracting inland oil in Hot Creek Valley is amongst the lowest anywhere in the world.
