▲ 生产井钻至油藏；预计将于 1 月底开始生产
·MOPU 和 FSO 升级并就位，准备生产
·远期计划是在 2026 年晚些时候拥有新的钻机以完成钻井作业

Rex International Holding Limited（“ex International Holding”、“ex”或阌熺淳公司及其附属公司阌熺淳集团）谨此宣布，Rex阌熺氮间接子公司Akrake Petroleum Benin SA（阌熺锤krake Petroleum）预计将在阌熺丹阌燂1区块S阌熺丹阌燂油田开始生产，贝宁 2026 年 1 月底；在储层段完成生产井AK-2H的钻探后，预计将于2026年1月12日当周初开始生产。与此同时，移动式海上生产装置（MOPU）Stella Energy 1和浮式储卸油装置（FSO）Kristina已完成升级并就位，准备投产。Akrake

Petroleum的钻井作业包括一口勘探井（AK-1P），旨在获取S油田内更深层、尚未开采的含油气储层（H7和H8）的更多信息，以及H6储层单元的两口水平生产井（AK-1H和AK-2H）。

由于储层上方覆盖层地质力学不稳定的页岩层，钻井作业比预期更具挑战性，多次卡钻事故导致工期严重延误，不得不对覆盖层段进行重钻。钻井团队利用从当前钻井作业中获得的新地质力学数据，优化了钻井参数，并成功钻穿了 AK-2H 生产井中具有挑战性的覆盖层。

AK-2H井投产后，由于自升式钻井平台Borr Gerd的合同期满，另外两口井的钻井作业将暂停。

计划于2026年晚些时候启用新的钻井平台，以完成钻井作业。根据AK-2H井的生产数据，还将评估在第二轮钻井作业中于H6油藏钻探另一口生产井的可能性。

锟� Production well drilled down to reservoir; production expected to start in end-January
锟� MOPU and FSO upgraded and in position, ready for production
锟� The forward plan is to have a new drilling rig later in 2026 to finalise drilling operations

Rex International Holding Limited (锟絉ex International Holding锟�, 锟絉ex锟� or the 锟紺ompany锟�, and together with its subsidiaries, the 锟紾roup锟�) wishes to announce that Rex锟絪 indirect subsidiary Akrake Petroleum Benin S.A. (锟紸krake Petroleum锟�) is expected to start production at the S锟絤锟� Field in Block 1, Benin in end-January 2026; upon the completion of the drilling of the production well AK-2H in the reservoir section, which is expected to start early in the week of 12 January 2026. Meanwhile, the mobile offshore production unit (MOPU) Stella Energy 1 and the floating storage & offloading unit (FSO) Kristina have already been upgraded and put on location ready for production.

Akrake Petroleum锟絪 drilling campaign comprised an exploration well (AK-1P) to get more information about deeper, not-produced, hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs (H7 and H8) within the S锟絤锟� Field, and two horizontal production wells (AK-1H and AK-2H) in the H6 reservoir unit.

Drilling operations in the geomechanically unstable shale layers in the overburden above the reservoir have proven to be more challenging than anticipated, resulting in significant delays due to several stuck pipe incidents, necessitating redrilling of the overburden section. The drilling team used new geo-mechanical data, obtained from the current drilling operations, to optimise the drilling parameters and have successfully drilled through the challenging overburden in the AK-2H production well.

After the AK-2H well is put on production, drilling operations on the other two wells will be suspended, as the contract period for the jack-up drilling rig Borr Gerd comes to an end.

The forward plan is to have a new drilling rig later in 2026 to finalise the drilling campaign. With production data from AK-2H, the possibility of drilling an additional production well in the H6 reservoir in this second drilling campaign will also be evaluated.
