Oil Search spins at Shahd



By Upstream staff 

Port Moresby-based Oil Search and its partner Sipetrol International have spudded the Shahd SE-1 well in Egypt near the producing Shahd oilfield in the East Ras Qattara concession.

The well is targeting the Bahariya and Kharita formations which are productive reservoirs elsewhere in the East Ras Qattara licence.

The well, which has a planned depth of 2970 metres, was sunk to 765 metres yesterday, the company said in a statement today.

Enap subsidiary Sipetrol, the well's operator with a 50.5% stake, and Oil Search (49.5%) spudded the well last Friday.
