Abstract: | The Bida basin is the least studied of all Nigeria’s inland frontier basins. To date, no exploratory wells have penetrated its sequences, and subsurface data are limited. Preliminary geological and prospectivity mapping in this study defines resource potential in the Bida basin. In addition, processed and interpreted geophysical aeromagnetic data assess depth to basement and basement topography, and redefine locational prospectivity. Available geochemical data show that hydrocarbon source rocks exist within the Enagi and Patti formations in the northern and southern sections respectively. |
