Bien sur voyons, d'ailleurs tu peux compter les hôtels sur tes deux mains, c'est pour dire que les investisseurs ne se bouscule pas au portillon.
euh, on parle pas du même temps, je parle du passé donc env.20 ans en arrière, tu parles du présent.
Les hôtels ont également servis aux bon nombres d'ingénieurs occidentaux et autres qui venaient pour l'exploitation du gaz et du pétrole en mer.
Là c'était intéressant d'investir à l'époque.

Pattani Basin
The Pattani Basin is an important producer of both oil and gas, with nearly all of the oil production in the northern part of the basin and most of the gas production in the southern part. The basin contains marginal-marine and non-marine sediments up to a maximum thickness of about 10, 000 meters. The depth of burial of the source rocks in this basin is sufficient to generate oil and gas. The southern part of the basin contains thicker sediments and produces mostly gas and condensate while the northern part produces much more oil. This difference could be explained by differences in burial depth and thermal gradient (the southern part of the basin is deeper and hotter) but it is more likely due to differences in the source section. Southern Pattani Basin
The largest gas field in the Pattani Basin is
Erawan, operated by Unocal. This field is a large structure in a basin-center location. The structure is antiformal but pervasively faulted. A story about this field illustrates the structural and stratigraphic complexity of this basin. After the field had been discovered and delineated, the first development well was a dry hole. A major 3-D seismic effort followed (one of the first in the world) and resulted in a very successful development.
The second largest gas field in the Pattani Basin is Pailin, also Unocal operated, which has only recently been developed due to the need for costly carbon dioxide removal. Other, smaller, Unocal-operated gas fields in the southern Pattani Basin are Moragot, Gomin, Funan, Jakrawan, Satun, Trat, Pladang, Pakarang, Platong, Surat and Kaphong. Surat Field also has significant oil production.
Unocal geochemists have published articles describing a dual-source model for natural gas generation in the southern Pattani Basin. The two sources cited are coals in the shallower part of the section and lacustrine shales near the base of the Tertiary section. It is likely that the source section in the southern part of the Pattani is more gas-prone, while the source section in the northern part of the Basin contains more oil-prone lacustrine shales, with their type-1 kerogens. Northern Pattani Basin
The most important fields in the northern Pattani Basin are Benchamas, which is mostly an oil field and Tantawan, which produces gas and some oil. Recent oil discoveries at Pakakrong, Maliwan and Jarmjuree account for much of the recent increase in Thailand's oil production. All of these fields are operated by Chevron in partnership with Thaipo. The Yala Field is the southern extension of the Tantawan structure into Unocal's acreage. Jasmine Field sits at the very northern end of the Pattani Basin on the basement high separating the Pattani and Rayong Basins.
Seismic mapping shows a deeper section in the North Pattani Basin, below the level often mapped as base Tertiary. These sediments are generally seen as a seismically transparent asymmetrical wedge of more than one second thickness with a prominent basal reflector. This could represent Lower Tertiary or even Mesozoic sediments that may be the source of the oil in this part of the Pattani Basin. This older graben trends north as far as the Jasmine Field and dips eastward. More recent movement along the bounding faults of this older graben has produced two north-south striking structural trends. Benchamas Field is associated with the eastern of these two trends and is characterized by a higher proportion of gas on the east flank of the structure, with more liquids on the west flank. This distribution of hydrocarbons could be explained if the liquids are being generated in the older graben fill.
The northern Pattani Basin is as complex as the southern part, as evidenced by the 8-238-1X dry hole drilled by Sun Oil. Producing wells of Chevron's Benchamas Field now surround the 8-238-1X well. The area was evaluated and dropped by Sun, Gulf and Unocal before Thaipo drilled the Benchamas Field discovery well. Besides basin-centered antiformal structures such as Benchamas, the northern Pattani Basin also contains oil-productive, basin-edge structures such as Pakakrong.
