Kasemene - 2 drilling activities will be conducted using a light medium rig (150 ton truck mounted IRI - 750).
Majot infrastructure will consist of a rig pad and drilling operations related infrastructure, including drilling fluid system, power generators, drilling machinery storage yard, water storage tanks, waste disposal pits, water treatment pits, storm water drainage, office space and a parking yard.

The area is characterised with wooded grassland, thickets and bushes and a total of 113 plant species were recorded in a radius of 1 km. No large mammals were recorded save for smaller mammals mostly rats and none belong to the IUCN list of threatened species.

As part of an extensive exploration programme across the most prospective onshore and offshore areas of the Northern Lake Albert Basin, Tullow, is to conduct oil and gas exploration drilling activities at the Male-1 well site, in the Bugungu Wildlife Reserve Buliisa District.

The proposed Male-1 Oil and Gas exploration drilling well site is located at coordinates 344653.47 East and 216221.67 North (UTM Zone 36 WGS 1984). The drilling rig pad is situated in the park, and can be accessed from the Buliisa – Biiso Road, branching off at Waiga bridge.

Heritage Oil and Gas (U) Limited has a joint venture with Energy Africa Limited of South Africa (Tullow Oil) and a production sharing agreement with the government of Uganda signed in July 2004 to explore, develop and produce hydrocarbons in Exploration Area 1of the Albertine Graben.
Jobi 2 is located north of the River Nile within the Murchison Falls National Park approximately 11km from the Delta, 3 km from the Albert Nile and 17km from Lake Albert. The Drilling site is to cover 12,000msq (1.2 hectares). Jobi 2 is located at UTM coordinates : 33396E, 261085N at an elevation of 644.3m.

Kigogole field is a rhomboid tilted fault block structure in the Albertine Graben. Kigogole field has five successful exploration and appraisal wells namely; Kigogle 1,2,3,4 and 5. The seismic data indicates presence of normal faults and the fualt bound structures make it necessary to drill appraisal wells to evaluate the reservoir continuity. It is proposed that 3 more well sites be appraised; Kigogole 6,7 and 8.

Tullow made several oil discoveries in Uganda including; thin channel- shaped reservoirs in Kaiso-Tonya(Mputa/Waraga reservoirs), over-pressured oil in Ngassa2, and thicker amalgamated fluvial channel systems at Kasamene1 in the Butiaba area. The reservoirs have different dynamics with fluid properties such as viscosity and GOR, the oil generally has high wax content and varying oil gravity requiring different designs and for testing and assessment.

Extended well Testing is intended to enhance understanding of the sub-surface potential of the servior and facilitate drilling requirements for the tested fields.

The Jetty project is proposed as part of the ongoing petroleum exploration plans to conduct a 2-D seismic survey and well drilling in Exploration Area 3A. The jetty is proposed at the edge of Lake Albert in Ntoroko- North Village, Bundibugyo District, in order to provide a docking area for the marine vessel that will transport the drilling and seismic survey equipment from Mbegu, Hoima District to Ntoroko.

The project will involve stockpiling of sand and hard core, rock filling of steel cages, placing of geotextile on the lake bed, dregdging 50m x 50m lake bed, cutting back a cliff edge close at the jetty by 6m, cutting 100m of access road and relocating entrances to UWA camp and NAADs poultry farm. the project is expected to cost $100,000 USD.

Petroleum exploration in Uganda has a long history dating back in 1938 when the 1st well (Waki B 1) was drilled by the Anglo European Company of South Africa. At that time oil prices and technology were low and therefore the prospects were found commercially unfeasible.

In 1997, Heritage was awarded Exploration Area 3(EA3) in the Semliki area followed by commercially exploitable reserves of oil (Mputa, Waraga, Nzizi, and Kingfisher) estimated at 300 Millionto 2.5 billion barrels in 2008 and 2009. Since then, there has been exponential growth in foreign investments to approximately $350 Million as of 2010.
