Total SE said Thursday that it has made a new oil-and-gas
discovery at its Suriname site alongside partner Apache Corp.
The discovery at the Keskesi East-1 well at Block 58 off
Suriname's coast encountered 63 meters net pay of hydrocarbons, the
French energy giant said. It follows previous discoveries at Maka
Central, Sapakara West and Kwaskwasi in the same area.
"We are also excited, as new operator of the block, to start the
appraisal operations designed to characterize the 2020 discoveries,
while in parallel start a second exploration campaign on this
prolific block in 2021," said Total's Senior Vice President for
Exploration, Kevin McLachlan. Total took over operations of Block
58 on Jan. 1.
