The well, which has been tied back to the West Khilala field facilities, brings the total South Khilala field production rate to 25 MMcfd and total recoverable proved and probable reserves from 47 billion cubic feet to 60 Bcf.
Company chief executive David Thomas was pleased with the results, he said in an announcement to the London Stock Exchange.
“The South Khilala-2 well results are very positive, both from a reserves and deliverability perspective, and will help underpin our production forecast,” he said.
