TransGlobe Energy Corporation has announced a successful development well at An Nagyah #10, Yemen. The well was drilled to a total depth of 1,144 meters and completed as an Upper Lamoil well, flowing at a stabilized rate of 1,547 barrels of light (42 degree API) oil per day.
The well encountered the Upper Lam sandstones with a 33 meter oil bearing interval. A 26.0 meter reservoir interval in the oil bearing section was perforated between 1,030 and 1,056meters.
An Nagyah #10 is located 0.5 kilometers east of the An Nagyah #6well which tested light sweet oil at 1,140 Bopd from a 29 meter perforated interval.
The total production capability of the An Nagyah field is now approximately 5,000 Bopd. Production rates via trucking are planned to increase from the current 3,800 Bopd to approximately 5,000 Bopd (1,250 Bopd to TransGlobe) when the An Nagyah #10 well is equipped for production. (menareport.com)
