DNO goes higher in Iraq



By Upstream staff 

Norway’s DNO said today its Tawke-3 well in Iraq had tested production of 9000 barrels of oil per day, up from a first test result of around 7000 bpd.

"Prior to completion of Tawke-3, a new flow test was undertaken confirming an aggregate test production capacity from the deeper oil filled reservoirs of approximately 9000 bpd," DNO said.

DNO said it would continue its long-term test production phase to gain more reservoir information "in preparation for finalizing export sales agreements under the guidance of the Kurdistan Regional Government."

Until DNO is allowed to starts exporting crude, its production will be delivered by truck to the local market, the company said.
