Introduction
The Soledad integrated block is located in the North-Northwest part of the Activo
Integral Aceite Terciario del Golfo surface, covering an area of 125 Km2; it is 60 Km NNW
of Poza Rica, Veracruz.

Main Features
The main producing formation is Chicontepec, having evidence of production in the
Mndez, Tamabra, Tamaulipas Superior and Tamn from the Upper, Medium Cretaceous
and Upper Jurassic, respectively.
The reservoirs in this Block are located in combined, structural (anticlines with subtle dips
with four-direction closure) and stratigraphic traps.
This block features 56 wells which reached down to the Mesozoic; of these wells, logs for
36 oil and gas producers are available, one from the Mndez formation with an initial rate
of 1,459 bpd, 32 from the Tamabra formation with initial rates ranging between 44 and
1,522 bpd, one in the Tamaulipas Superior formation with a rate of 223 bpd and two in the
Taman formation with initial rates of 2126 and 126 bpd, respectively. There are 16 wells
with gas and/or oil shows during drilling through the Mndez, San Felipe, Agua Nueva,
Tamabra, Tamaulipas Superior, Inferior and Tamn formations; likewise, 50 wells with
impregnations in cores and channel samples were reported in the Mndez, San Felipe,
Agua Nueva, Tamabra, Tamaulipas Superior, Tamaulipas Inferior, Pimienta and Tepexic
formations.
Examples of producing wells in the Mesozoic include: Guadalupe-2 from the Mndez
formation, Soledad-105 from the Tamabra formation, Coyotes-3 from the Tamaulipas
Superior formation and Guadalupe-1 from the Tamn formation.
In the Guadalupe-2 well, significant gas and oil shows were observed in the Mndez
formation - the well flowed mud, gas and oil during 5.25 hours. Four cores were cut at the
Tamn formation, exhibiting very poor light brown oil impregnation. Slightly viscous dark
black oil impregnations were observed In the channel samples from the Agua Nueva
formation, whilst regular light brown oil impregnations were observed in the Tamabra
formation.
One production test was performed in the 55-1765 m interval at the Mndez formation,
producing 1,459 bpd of oil, 1.8% water, GOR 90 m3/m3 through 13 mm production tubing
(TP, in Spanish).

The Soledad block is located on the north side of the Chicontepec Paleochannel, there is
3D seismic data for 100% of this area, derived from the Amatitln prospect processed on
2009, and on the south from Cohuca, processed on 2011, and on the Southeast from
Miquetla-Miahuapan, processed on respectively. According to the seismic archives, these
