Game-Changing
Opportunity for Hungary
Transitioning from being a country dependent on imported natural gas to one that is self-sufficient in energy production can be a game-changer for any nation. Unlocking the HPHT tight gas resources of the deep Pannonian Basin, a geologic 'super basin', provides such an opportunity for Hungary.
​
Charting new frontiers, CanCambria, via its appraisal of the Kiskunhalas Trough, hopes to help Hungary meet its domestic natural gas needs.

Kiskunhalas Project
Tight-Gas Sand Appraisal and Development
The Pannonian Basin in southern Hungary is an area of great potential for the development of large-scale, deep tight gas sandstone reservoirs. Many shallow oil and gas fields define this proven, mature petroleum province, although the deeper basin fills (>2,500 m) have, until now, attracted little attention. With supply under threat, the existing pipeline infrastructure, with readily available takeaway and storage capacity throughout the region, now supports the exploration, appraisal, and development of this natural resource.

Geology
Kiskunhalas subsurface
The Kiskunhalas Trough is a Miocene age sedimentary basin that contains the right combination of mature source rock beds and stacked reservoir geo-bodies within a large, continuous overpressure trap. A working petroleum system is proven by three deep wells that tested gas and significant high API condensate. Our Kiskunhalas Project aims to commercialize this discovery.

A potential game changer for Hungary
We believe that over the next 10 years, our 100%- owned Kiskunhalas Project could become a significant contributor to the EU natural gas supply and the energy security of Hungary.

(1) Moderate Uplift and Sedimentation: Isolated islands (lower prospectivity).
(2) Relay Ramps Setting - Sediment bypass area (minimal reservoir; lower prospectivity).
(3) Low Subsidence, High Sedimentation: Fan-deltas wrapping around fault tip (moderate prospectivity over broad areas).
(4) High Prospective Area: High subsidence and high sedimentation, with aggrading footwall-sourced fan deltas and stacked turbidite lobes and channels with axial drainage development. The sediment source is the main landmass, hinterland areas. This is the focus area.
Granite Wash, Anadarko Basin, USA
The "Granite Wash" tight gas liquids play in East Texas and Oklahoma produces over 2 Bcf of gas per day, with individual well IPs commonly greater than 10 MMcf/d. The play represents a similar geologic setting, with stacked fault-margin fan deltas shedding sediment off mountainous flanks into the basin foredeep.
​
Although of differing ages, many subsurface metrics can be benchmarked, and well performance used to help refine the uncertainty and risk associated with the Kiskunhalas Project.
​
The thick pay section and the stacked, discontinuous nature of the reservoir make the Granite Wash ideal for both vertical and horizontal drilling, making the play a strategic North American asset.
