HOUSTON, Feb. 3
-- Bahamas Petroleum Co. PLC expressed encouragement at early interpretation of 1,120 km of 8-km cable seismic on its southern licenses off the Bahamas.

The survey confirmed the presence of multiple prospects, some of which are four-way closures while others are stratigraphic-structural traps. BPC has let a seismic processing contract to Spectrum Geophysical.

The prospects identified from shipboard analysis validate the presence of the leads identified in the pre-1987 evaluation, BPC said.
