It consists of seven zones between 2,500 and 7,000 ft true vertical depth subsea (TVDSS), the upper six of which are turbidite deposits of unconsolidated to poorly consolidated sandstone (1 to 1,000 md and 20 to 30% BV porosity) interbedded with shales. The gross thickness of 3,300 ft contains 900 ft of sandstone.
