(WO) — Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. 及其合资伙伴 NAMCOR（纳米比亚国家石油公司）宣布在纳米比亚东北部陆上石油勘探许可证 73 号（“EL 73”）上启动 Naingopo 勘探井。

第一口达玛拉褶皱带井——纳因戈波勘探井。2024 年 7 月 7 日，ReconAfrica 在纳米比亚东北部达玛拉褶皱带陆上 PEL 73 钻探了纳因戈波勘探井。

该井的计划总钻探深度约为 3,800 米（12,500 英尺），预计将遇到多个油气储层。Naingopo 井的目标是 1.63 亿桶无风险潜在石油资源或 8430 亿立方英尺无风险潜在天然气资源。

此外，ReconAfrica 表示，它“正在继续推进农场合资进程”，公司希望很快就能完成这一进程。

总裁兼首席执行官 Brian Reinsborough 评论说：“我们的运营团队将于 2​​024 年 7 月 7 日开钻该井。我们非常高兴能够钻探这口影响深远的 Damara Fold Belt 井，自从我加入 ReconAfrica 以来，我们的技术和运营团队已经在过去 11 个月内一直在计划这口井。Naingopo 井是 PEL 73 多井勘探钻探活动中的第一口井。该井预计总深度为 3,800 米（12,500 英尺），钻探需要 90 天。根据Netherland, Sewell & Associates Inc.（“SAI”）于 2024 年 3 月 12 日发布的最新预期资源报告，这是一个重要的开钻井，可能释放超过 31 亿桶石油或 18 万亿立方英尺天然气的潜在资源。”

勘探部高级副总裁 Chris Sembritzky 评论道：“Naingopo 勘探井是第一口测试 Damara Fold Belt 油气田的油井。如果成功，该油井将从我们另外三个勘探区和 20 个已绘制和定义的勘探线索中释放出巨大的石油和天然气潜力。Naingopo 油井预计将测试多个储层层段，其中四个层段已包含在我们来自 NSAI 的第三方资源报告中。”

ReconAfrica 是一家加拿大石油和天然气公司，从事纳米比亚东北部和博茨瓦纳西北部的卡拉哈里沙漠的达玛拉褶皱带和卡万戈裂谷盆地的勘探工作，该公司持有该地区约 800 万个连续石油许可证。

(WO) – Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. and its joint venture partner NAMCOR (the state oil company of Namibia), announced the spudding of the Naingopo exploration well on Petroleum Exploration Licence 73 (“PEL 73”), onshore northeast Namibia.

First Damara Fold Belt well – Naingopo exploration well. ReconAfrica spud the Naingopo exploration well in the Damara Fold Belt onshore PEL 73 in northeast Namibia on July 7, 2024.

The well will be drilled to a planned total depth of approximately 3,800 m (12,500 ft), and is expected to encounter multiple reservoir intervals targeting both oil and gas. The Naingopo well is targeting 163 MMbbl mof unrisked prospective oil resources or 843 Bcf of unrisked prospective natural gas resources.

Additionally, ReconAfrica said it “continues to progress the farm out joint venture process,” which the company hopes to do soon.

Brian Reinsborough, President and CEO commented, said, “Our operations teams spud the well on July 7, 2024. We are extremely excited to be drilling this high impact Damara Fold Belt well that our technical and operations teams have been planning over the past 11 months, since I joined ReconAfrica. The Naingopo well represents the first well in a multi-well exploration drilling campaign on PEL 73. The well is anticipated to reach total depth of 3,800 metres (12,500 feet), and take 90 days to drill. This is a significant play opening well which may unlock a total potential resource of over 3.1 billion barrels of oil or 18 trillion cubic feet of natural gas based on the most recent prospective resource report prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates Inc. (“NSAI”), dated March 12, 2024.”

Chris Sembritzky, Senior VP of Exploration commented, said, “The Naingopo exploration well is the first well to test the Damara Fold Belt play. In the event of success, the well would unlock significant oil and natural gas potential from our additional three prospects and 20 leads that have been mapped and defined. The Naingopo well is expected to test multiple reservoir intervals of which four are included in our third party resource report from NSAI.”

ReconAfrica is a Canadian oil and gas company engaged in the exploration of the Damara Fold Belt and Kavango Rift Basin in the Kalahari Desert of northeastern Namibia and northwestern Botswana, where the company holds petroleum licenses comprising ~8 million contiguous
