Middle East and Africa-focused explorer Circle Oil has found gas shows in its latest Sebou permit drill, onshore Morocco.
The SAH-W1 well, located about 3.2 kilometres to the south west of the main gas gathering station in the prospect, was drilled to a total depth of 1,263 metres and encountered three gas-bearing zones of high pressure reservoirs.
The net pay from wireline log analysis is 6 metres in the Top Guebbas, 6 metres in the main target Intra Guebbas and 3 metres in the lower part of the Intra Guebbas, the company said in a statement.
“We are delighted to add another successful discovery to our Sebou gas portfolio,” said Prof. Chris Green, Cicle Oil’s chief executive.
“This is the first well of a six well programme to be drilled with our partner ONHYM in the Sebou permit and is coupled with another six well programme in the Lalla Mimouna permit.”
