San Leon Energy said the Rawicz-15 development well in Poland will be spud next month.
The development well is in the country’s southern Permian Basin and in addition to providing a second well, it is also hoped it will provide further data on the sandstone reservoir.
Poland's biggest gas distributor PGNiG will start oil and gas exploration in eastern Germany, as part of a bigger plan to boost production assets outside Poland.
The company revealed in June it planned to reduce exploration activity and refocus on appraisal, development and production to secure operational cash-flow.
In line with this decision, San Leon has relinquished four licences, in addition to PKN Orlen taking on its interests in several other blocks.
