S. Adriatic / Ionian Tectonic History The petroleum system(s) of the S. Adriatic, including NW Greece, are genetically related to continuous carbonate deposition on the Adria Plate as it drifted away from Africa and eventually impinged…
Hydrocarbon Play Distribution The successful exploration in S. Italy and Albania are essentially from the same play due to the shared geological history of the Adria Plate. The deformation of the plate edges in Italy (S. Apennines) and…

Hydrocarbon Occurrence / Analogs The largest onshore oil and gas fields in Europe are associated with the Adria Plate. Exploration results and surface studies convincingly show the play extends to the south into NW Greece, where it is…
Analogs / Italy Eocene / Cretaceous karstified platform carbonates. Traps are created by E. Miocene compression / folding, Sourced by very rich Triassic / Lower Jurassic source rocks, and sealed by syn - to post depositional Tertiary…

Delvina Gas / Condensate Field; Albania Closest analog to Ioannina Block 10
Summary of Petroleum System - NW Greece; Ionian Zone Western Greece and Albania have had a broadly similar geological history. The hydrocarbon potentials of both areas can therefore be expected to be comparable. R RESERVOIR TRAP…
Exploration Play Targets NW Greece; Ionian Zone The structural style and hydrocarbon play components of the Ionian Zone in Albania continue into NW Greece and will be the model for Exploration of the play here Thrusted Anticlines…
Exploration History; NW Greece Given similarities between NW Greece and S. Italy / Albania, comparatively little exploration has taken place IOANNINA 1940s: Exploration started in the 2nd World War by the Italian army. Several shallow…
