Vaalco said that one of the two ESPs failed in the well. However, prior to attempting to start the second ESP installed in the well, it has to determine, together with the original equipment manufacturer who installed the ESPs, "if the cause of the failure is due to operation, design or installation of the equipment".
Avouma 2-H was producing approximately 2700 barrels per day of oil(660 bpd net to Vaalco).
