What is it about?

Modern 2D data has imaged the Cenozoic Churchill Delta in the slope and deepwater offshore Labrador. The Churchill Delta is 17,550 km2 in size and 5-8 km thick. Proven hydrocarbon accumulations have been discovered on the Labrador shelf. The Churchill Delta is distal to these discoveries and also has indications of hydrocarbon accumulations based on AVO analysis of the 2D seismic.

Why is it important?

Within this paper the Churchill Delta is defined for the first time. As well, evidence for a working petroleum system within the 2D seismic over the Churchill Delta is discussed.

Perspectives

The definition of the Churchill Delta has been a collaboration of the authors of this paper for a number of years. We are excited to bring our interpretations on this frontier area to the world through this article.
