HOUSTON, Jan. 31
– San Leon Energy PLC let a contract to Fugro Robertson to reprocess seismic on the Foum Draa and Sidi Moussa licenses off Morocco.

The contractor will reprocess 1,500 sq km of 3D data on Foum Draa and 2,000 km of 2D data on Sidi Moussa. The reprocessing will tie in information from the existing RAK-1 and Ifni Marine-1 wells. The work is to be completed by the end of the 2011 second quarter.

Multiple prospects have been identified on each license, nine of which have resource potential greater than 50 million bbl.
