六个已确定的前景估计综合无风险可采远景资源潜力为 251.5 mmbo (Pmean)。审计由默林能源有限公司执行。

这六个矿区尚未单独命名，是在 Tethys Oil 于 2022 年对 58 号区块的 South Lahan 地区进行全新改进的 3D 地震收购后确定的。这些矿区的结构是 Ara Group 内的盐内碳酸盐纵梁，该矿区已被证实，在附近 6 号区块的 Harweel 地区生产轻质油。

预计这六个勘探区合计拥有 2.515 亿桶石油“mbo”（Pmean）的无风险可采远景资源。预计综合风险可采预期资源量为 23.8 mmbo (Pmean)。请参阅下表了解更多详细信息。

结合此前披露的58区块东北部Fahd地区经审计的远景资源量，Tethys Oil该区块的无风险可采远景资源量预计为435.9 mmbo（Pmean）。总体而言，Tethys Oil 经审计的 58 区块探明前景的估计风险可采远景资源量为 61.2 mmbo (Pmean)。有关更多详细信息，请参阅本新闻稿所附的完整报告。

根据该地区的现有发现，人们注意到，在某些地质条件下，天然气聚集是可能的。因此，Merlin 为 South Lahan Ara 纵梁前景提供了一份替代性预期天然气资源表。合并前景的替代无风险预期天然气资源量为 2 万亿立方英尺（Pmean），以 6,000 立方英尺/英尺至一桶油当量的换算系数，相当于 3.37 亿桶油当量（无风险 Pmean）。

Tethys Oil 目前正在为法赫德 58 号区块 Kunooz-1 钻第一口探井进行钻机调动前的最后准备工作。该公司还计划于 2024 年晚些时候在该区块钻探第二口勘探井，地点位于 Fahd 或 South Lahan，具体取决于 Kunooz-1 的结果。南拉汉第一口勘探井的位置预计将根据未来几周对最终勘探库存的进一步分析来选择。

“我们很高兴在 58 号区块上发现了超过 400 mmbo 的无风险可采预期资源。我们现在期待着用钻头测试这一潜力，从法赫德的 Kunooz-1 开始”，管理人员 Magnus Nordin 说道。特提斯石油公司董事。

Six identified prospects hold an estimated combined unrisked recoverable prospective resource potential of 251.5 mmbo (Pmean). The audit was performed by Merlin Energy Resources Ltd.

The six prospects, yet to be individually named, were identified following Tethys Oil’s new and improved 3D-seismic acquisition of the South Lahan area on Block 58 in 2022. The prospects’ structures are intrasalt carbonate stringers within the Ara Group, a play that is proven and producing light oil in the nearby Harweel area on neighbouring Block 6.

Combined, the six prospects are estimated to hold unrisked recoverable prospective resources of 251.5 million barrels of oil “mmbo” (Pmean). The estimated combined risked recoverable prospective resources are 23.8 mmbo (Pmean). See the table below for more detailed information.

Combined with the previously disclosed audited prospective resources of the Fahd area in the north-eastern part of Block 58, Tethys Oil’s unrisked recoverable prospective resources on the block are estimated to be 435.9 mmbo (Pmean). In total, the estimated risked recoverable prospective resources for Tethys Oil’s audited identified prospects on Block 58 are 61.2 mmbo (Pmean). See the full report attached to this press release for more detailed information.

Based on existing discoveries made in the region it is noted that in certain geological circumstances, gas accumulations are possible. As such, Merlin has included an alternative prospective gas resources table for the South Lahan Ara stringer prospects. The alternative unrisked prospective gas resources of the combined prospects are 2 trillion cu/ft (Pmean) which, with a conversion factor of 6,000 cu/ft to one barrel of oil equivalent, corresponds to 337 million barrels of oil equivalents (unrisked Pmean).

Tethys Oil is currently conducting final preparations ahead of the rig mobilisation for the drilling of the first exploration well on Block 58, Kunooz-1 in Fahd. The company also plans to drill a second exploration well on the block later in 2024, either in Fahd or South Lahan depending on the results of Kunooz-1. The location for the first exploration well in South Lahan is expected to be selected based on further analysis of the finalised prospect inventory in the coming weeks.

“We are delighted to have established unrisked recoverable prospective resources of well over 400 mmbo on Block 58. We are now looking forward to testing this potential with the drill bit, beginning with Kunooz-1 in Fahd”, says Magnus Nordin, managing director of Tethys Oil.
