ReconAfrica:Kavango West 1x 井正在向 Otavi 钻探

ReconAfrica 提供了纳米比亚 Kavango West 1X 勘探井的运营更新。目前,该井正在钻探奥塔维 (Otavi) 碳酸盐岩储层,该储层是达玛拉褶皱带的主要目标。该公司预计将钻探该潜在储层的大段,随后将对奥塔维 (Otavi) 段进行全面评估。

钻井作业在井的较浅部分提前完成,导致当前套管深度的作业推迟了数周,因为该公司正在等待套管柱将井的最后一部分运送到位。

作业已恢复,钻探工作仍按原计划进行。Recon 预计钻探将于 11 月下半月达到全深 (TD)。Kavango West 1X 井预计将穿透约 1,500 米的潜在储层,然后达到约 3,800 米的全深。达到全深后,将启动一项广泛的测井计划,预计结果将于年底左右公布。

ReconAfrica: Kavango West 1x well drilling ahead into Otavi

ReconAfrica provided an operational update regarding the Kavango West 1X exploration well in Namibia. Currently, the well is drilling ahead into the Otavi carbonate reservoir, which is the primary target in the Damara Fold Belt. The company anticipates drilling an extensive section of the potential reservoir, which will be followed by a full evaluation of the Otavi section.

Drilling operations advanced ahead of schedule in the shallower section of the well, which caused a deferral of operations for several weeks at the current casing depth as the company waited on casing strings for the final section of the well to be delivered to location.

Operations have resumed and drilling remains on the original expected schedule. Recon anticipates being at total depth (TD) in the second half of November. The Kavango West 1X well is expected to penetrate approximately 1,500 m of potential reservoir before reaching TD at approximately 3,800 m. Once at TD, an extensive logging program will commence with results expected to be made public around year-end.
