Update on Tawke PSC
Genel Energy plc ('Genel') notes that DNO ASA, as operator of the Tawke PSC
(Genel 25% working interest), has today issued an update on licence
activity:
Going into the fourth quarter, Peshkabir field production has ramped up to
over 50,000 bopd from six wells less than 18 months after commencement of
operations, beating its end-2018 target ahead of schedule and below budget.
Six wells are currently producing from Peshkabir, and the seventh,
Peshkabir-8, will shortly commence test production. Peshkabir-9 will spud in
mid-November.
At the Tawke field, two shallow Jeribe wells, Tawke-50 and Tawke-51, were
brought onstream during October. The Tawke-49 well, drilled to the deeper
Cretaceous, will follow later this month. The well has been drilled
utilising underbalanced technology, the first on the licence, and is
producing from the target zone while drilling. The Tawke-52 Cretaceous well
will spud by the end of November. Tawke is currently producing at an average
rate of 80,000 bopd.
The operator expects to exit the year with Tawke PSC production of at least
130,000 bopd.
