The Tevét-2 ST1 well wireline logging operations have concluded, and plug and abandonment operations are presently ongoing. The exploration component of this well intersected a gross oil column of approximately 8 metres within good quality Cretaceous sands, thereby upgrading surrounding Cretaceous exploration prospects.
On completion of plug and abandonment operations, the ‘Stena Tay’ drilling rig will move to the Labeidna prospect.
The Labeidna-1 well will target Miocene turbidite sands in the vicinity of the Chinguetti field and success here will significantly upgrade the adjacent prospect N’Dor immediately to the south west. The Labeidna prospect lies approximately 15 kilometres to the south west of Chinguetti in 1,265 metres of water.
