Turkish delight: wildcat tested positive for Otto Energy.
Otto confirms gas in Turkish wildcat
Australia’s Otto Energy said the Kirmizihoyuk-1 wildcat produced a combined 4.8 million cubic feet of gas a day during several tests run on the gas intervals.
Kirmizihoyuk-1 encountered gas columns over a number of zones measuring from three metres to 15 metres at depths of 330 metres to 480 metres.
Tests were run on the upper intervals and over a total perforated length of 41 metres over the last week.
The well will be completed as a future producer.
The chartered land rig has moved on from Kirmizihoyuk-1 to test the Ikihoyuk-2 discovery well. Results will be released later this week.
Otto holds a 35% stake in Edirne. The licence is operated by joint venture partners Petroleum Exploration Mediterranean (55%) and Petraco (10%).
