FAR在Senegal深水油田钻探取得成果

MELBOURNE, Australia – FAR and its joint venture partners continue to evaluate results from appraisal wells on the deepwater SNE oil field offshore Senegal.SNE-2, SNE-3, BEL-1, SNE-4, and the SNE discovery well, were drilled over an area stretching 9 km in a north-south direction (BEL-1 to SNE-3) and 5 km to the east (SNE-4).All the wells confirmed a roughly 100-m (328-ft) gross oil column, high-quality 32° API oil, and the presence and correlation of principal reservoir units across the field.In addition, flow tests from SNE-2 and SNE-3 indicated the potential for commercially viable well production rates.FAR expects appraisal drilling will resume on the field in early 2017, the aims being to confirm volumes and assess the connectivity of the upper reservoirs; to evaluate reservoirs not previously tested; and to improve definition and scale of the first-phase development.
