作为西尼罗河三角洲 (WND) 4 槽钻探活动的一部分，BP 已完成位于 North King Mariout 海上特许权区的 El King-2 勘探井的钻探活动。

该井于 2025 年 1 月 14 日由 Valaris DS-12 钻机开钻，在测量深度约 2,400 米处发现了两个潜在的墨西拿油藏。在完成 El King-2 井的钻探后，DS-12 钻机将转移到北亚历山大特许地钻探 Fayoum-5 勘探井。

BP has completed the drilling activity at the El King-2 exploration well in the North King Mariout Offshore Concession as part of its West Nile Delta (WND) 4-slot drilling campaign.

The well, which was spudded on 14 January 2025 by the Valaris DS-12 rig, encountered two prospective Messinian reservoirs at a measured depth of approximately 2,400 m. Upon completion of drilling the El King-2 well, the DS-12 rig will move to drill the Fayoum-5 exploration well in the North Alexandria concession.
