To date two distinct oil families have been identified, the Smackover, Upper Jurassic type oil found in the Northern block and the younger Eocene Punta Gorda equivalent source rocks and shows on the found in the Chapleton #1 well. A possible Upper Cretaceous source contribution is under investigation.
