The well was targeting a near-field structure between the Usano field and the Kutubu field in Block PDL 2.
The sidetrack penetrated the Toro formation at the desired depth and location relative to the original hole, but indications are the sands are water-wet.
Logs indicate that sands in the deeper Digimu, Hedinia and Iagifu reservoirs may be hydrocarbon bearing. The potential commerciality of production from these sands will be assessed as part of the ongoing development programme for the Usano field area, said Oil Search.
