Sound Energy today confirmed it had finished drilling its first Tendrara well.
The upstream company, which focuses on Mediterranean, drilled the well to total depth of 2,535 metres.
A company spokesperson added: “The company identified significant gas shows whilst drilling the reservoir and the full set of acquired logs will be now processed. The Company confirms that a total gross pay of 89 metres has been identified.
“The rig will now de-mobilise from the TE6 location and move to the already prepared TE7 site on stand-by. Immediately after de-mobilisation, the Company will proceed with the planned rigless operations to mechanically stimulate the reservoir followed by a well test.”
