What I don't understand is why the market has almost completely disregarded these findings with respect to the BG share price, even though it has a 60% share of the project with Ophir.

In fact every piece of good news BG has put out in the last 3 months seems to have been ignored by the market. Is the company so huge that no amount of news on this scale makes any difference whatsoever?

I know there have been some negative issues such as increased expenditure in Oz, the Elgin gas leak and the general rejection by the market of oil and gas companies, but it seems that no amount of good news at this time that will have any positive impact on the share price. Very frustrating, but maybe an opportunity to buy some more when the markets eventually settle.

Mzia-1 is BG Group's first discovery within the deeper Cretaceous section and opens an extensive new play fairway within the Group's offshore acreage in Blocks 1, 3 and 4, to complement the now proven Tertiary fairway.

Preliminary evaluation of the results indicates 55 metres of natural gas pay in good quality sands. An extensive logging programme has been completed, including the acquisition of pressure data and gas samples.

Significantly, the well has de-risked a number of adjacent Cretaceous prospects, which could form part of a future Mzia hub. These prospects are expected to be tested in a future appraisal programme to be defined following incorporation of data from this new well and 3D seismic.

The new resources proven by Mzia and the potential of adjacent prospects are currently under evaluation. Prior to drilling Mzia-1, BG Group had estimated mean total gross recoverable resources approaching 7 trillion cubic feet of gas from the four previous discoveries drilled in Tanzania.


Mzia-1 is approximately 45 kilometres offshore southern Tanzania in a water depth of 1 639 metres. It is some 23 kilometres from the Jodari-1 discovery and is part of the 2012 three-to-four well exploration programme.

Following the imminent completion of operations at Mzia, the Deepsea Metro-1 will relocate to Block 3 for the drilling of the next exploration prospect, Papa-1.

BG Group as operator has a 60% interest in Blocks 1, 3 and 4 offshore Tanzania, with Ophir Energy plc holding 40%.
