Regulatory News:
Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT), bp and Eni (as the
Operator) have made a gas discovery with the Bashrush well on the
North El Hammad license, located eleven kilometers off the Egyptian
coast.
The well encountered 102 meters net gas pay in high quality
sandstones of the Abu Madi formation. A production test was
conducted with flow rates of up to 32 million standard cubic feet
of gas per day (MMscf/d), limited by testing facilities. It is
estimated that future deliverability per well will be up to 100
MMscf/d, along with up to 800 barrels of condensate per day. Future
plans foresee development through tie-in to nearby existing
infrastructures.
"We are very pleased to announce this discovery in Egypt. These
results support our strategy to allocate a significant share of our
exploration budget to the search of hydrocarbons in the vicinity of
existing infrastructures," said Kevin McLachlan, Senior Vice
President Exploration at Total. "These resources have low
development costs since they can rapidly be tie-in and put into
production."
Total holds a working interest of 25% in the North El Hammad
license, alongside operator ENI (37.5%) and BP (37.5%).
