- The Descartes Prospect is an Oligocene turbidite fan complex with an estimated P50 recoverable oil resource of approximately 800 MMbbls (600 MMbbls in VIC/P46).
- Descartes is a large stratigraphic play with seismic amplitude and AVO anomalies.
- Seismic features characteristic of sandy turbidite sequences provide encouragement that reservoir sands are present.
- Underlying Upper Cretaceous tilted fault block prospects facilitate turbidite test.
