The purpose of this report is to provide an assessment of the potential economic feasibility of the Moki and Manaia fields. The Manaia and Moki oil accumulations were discovered by exploration wells Maui-4 and Moki-1 in 1970 and 1983 respectively. Both fields were considered sub-economic and have never been developed. This report presents the results of a geological and geophysical review of the fields, utilising newly reprocessed seismic data, and includes a review of likely reserves. Re-mapping of the reprocessed seismic and re-evaluation of the petrophysical data have not resulted in any significant change to proven, possible and probable reserves. Nevertheless, this report contributes to a better understanding of the geological setting and depositional facies of Moki Formation sandstones.
