Desk Review

The purpose of this article is to review the dynamics of natural gas resources in Africa and evaluate how it can help solve the power challenges of the continent. This article develops from a descriptive analysis and desk review on natural gas and power. The key finding is that despite the increased discovery of natural gas in Africa, it has had minimal impact on power production. This study provides a descriptive overview and is limited to only natural gas. It does not consider how other energy sources can contribute to solving Africa’s power challenges. This article draws the attention of both policymakers and the investment community to the opportunities in the ‘natural gas-power’ value chain and the need to invest in gas infrastructure. An overview of the power challenges and natural gas potential of Africa is provided.

 On the basis of data of the geological-prospecting work and subject investigations it was possible to study geological factors of the hydrocarbon gases accumulation in coalbeds of deep levels of the lviv-Volyn coal basin. The peculiarities of the occurrence of the majority of commercial coalbeds and enclosing rocks in the methane-nitrous gas zone (a zone of gas weathering) were characterized as well as the reasons of the rize of this natural phenomenon were explained. A predictive appraisal was given for the resources of hydrocarbon gases in coalbeds occurred in the methane gas zone of the field.

Natural gas has been discovered in 22 fields in the Central Eromanga and Cooper Basins of southwestern Queensland in the area comprised by ATP 259P. Proved, probable and possible reserves in excess of 36 × 109 m3 (1.27 TCF) are located in four discrete structural provinces. Fluvial sandstones of the Early Permian Patchawarra Formation and Late Permian Toolachee Formation contain the majority of the reserves. Minor amounts of gas are reservoired in the Early Permian Epsilon Formation, the Early-Middle Triassic Nappamerri Formation and the Early Jurassic Hutton Sandstone and Birkhead Formation. Considerable gas-liquids reserves are also found in these reservoirs.Existing reserves are located primarily in structural traps although lithofacies variations are widely recognised, particularly in the Patchawarra Formation, indicating both new play opportunities and difficulties in assessing the undiscovered gas potential of the permit. Additional gas potential is identified in flank areas of the more prominent structural axes such as the Jackson-Wackett-Innamincka Trend in fault-bounded, pinchout and sub-unconformity trapping configurations.More than 200 prospects and leads are identified with the potential to entrap approximately 51 × 109 m3 (1.80 TCF) of gas on an unrisked basis. When combined with reserves from established fields, the ultimate potential of the ATP is assessed as 87 × 109 m3 (8.10 TCF).Despite the very high success rate of previous exploration and appraisal programs, the ultimate gas potential of the Queensland portion of both the Cooper and Eromanga Basins has been only partially addressed. Exploration and appraisal programs providing future additions to proved and probable reserves are considered low risk and are dependent upon an agreement with the Queensland government that would enable the ATP holders to produce and sell gas interstate.
