RESUMEN EJECUTIVO - DISCOVERING THE HYDROCARBON POTENTIAL OF THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

In 2015 the Ministry of Energy and Mines of the Dominican Republic launched a project aiming to identify the commercial potential of existing hydrocarbons in the country. To achieve this objective, the following activities were carried out: 1.- Collection of existing technical data to prepare the data packets belonging to each oil basin. These data packets are available for consultation in a specialized database. 2.- Creating the necessary geological models using specialized applications such as Petrel and TechLog. 3.- Generation of the petroleum system model for Enriquillo, San Juan, Azua y Llanura Oriental basins using PetroMod as specialized application.
