"Sainte Sophie was never drilled, because it was so heavily faulted," explained John Brodylo, Questerre's exploration manager. Brodylo intends to drill right down the side of a wrench fault, into a collapse or sag feature. Sainte Sophie #1 will test a structural low that is seismically mapped over 31 square kilometers. According to Brodylo, this structure could contain an upside resource potential of 650 bcf.
The origins of these collapses or sags -- often described as "negative" flower structures -- are trans-tensional or strike-slip faults that are deeply rooted in the basement. Hydrothermal, high pressure brines move up these faults: When the fluids hit porosity layers -- usually high energy grainstones, packstone and wackestones -- they move laterally, preferentially dolomitizing the carbonate rock.
