Roberts) Royal Dutch Shell RPS Energy Schlumberger Statoil Wintershall Preface The 8th Petroleum Geology Conference (PGC VIII) was the latest in a prestigious series dating back to 1974. The conference marked a major milestone in the region’s petroleum geology, being held 50 years after the first North Sea hydrocarbon discovery in the West Sole gas field of the Southern North Sea. Over 41 years, this conference series and the associated proceedings volumes (the ‘Barbican’ series), have provided an important reference to NW Europe exploration and production, from its early life as an emerging world class petroleum province, through to its current mature stage. The conference series has been distinguished by its high scientific quality; PGC VIII is no exception. We are con- fident that this proceedings volume and its predecessors will continue to be a standard reference for successive generations of petroleum geo- scientists, academics and subsurface professionals both working in the region and learning from the experience accumulated here. The eighth conference signaled a return to the roots of the event, focusing on NW Europe. The conference theme was ‘50 years of learning – a platform for present value and future success’. The conference began with a core workshop: a suite of cores from classic North Sea and UK onshore reservoirs on display together with some from recent discoveries and developments. The core workshop material is not included in these proceedings. Readers who wish to access the core material that was on display can do so using the summary listing in the introductory overview paper by Levell & Bowman (2017, https://doi.org/10.1144/PGC8.41) and the following link: http://www.bgs.ac.uk/collections/bore.html. The conference sessions and volume proceedings covered a range of areas from New Plays, Key Fields and Fairways, and Key Geoscience Challenges to Mature Fields and Technology. A selection of papers based on posters on display at the conference has also been included in this volume. The conference also offered the opportunity to celebrate the life and contributions of two of Europe’s most prestigious petroleum geologists who had passed away since the last conference, David G. Roberts and Peter Zeigler. To acknowledge the impact of these two giants of our industry, BP and Shell, respectively, agreed to fund awards for the best papers. The papers selected were ‘Intrusive and extrusive sequences and their interactions with hydrocarbon

We examine a number of Price 174.7p valuation approaches for SNE in Senegal, the potential for reserve Market cap £1019m upgrades and exploration value. We believe SNE is an outsized asset and £0.8/US$ assume Cairn seeks to farm-down. This will naturally affect long-term Net cash ($m) at 31 December 2016 335 value upside, but would in our view drive a better balance of asset and Shares in issue 583.2m financial risk.
