SDX Energy reports that the KSR-21 well in the Sebou Central of the Gharb Basin, Morocco has reached its total vertical depth of 1,955 meters (1,966 meters measured depth) targeting a prospect within the Hoot formation, which is one of the main producing formations in the area.
Drilling and wireline logging data confirm the presence of gas charged sands within the targeted reservoir section.
The drilling rig will now be moved off location and the reservoir interval perforated to undergo a short testing period before being brought onto production to supply existing gas offtakers.
The well was spud earlier in September using existing 3D seismic to determine the target. Daniel Gould, SDX Energy Managing Director, commented at the time that company would assess the feasibility of drilling additional wells, back-to-back, to reduce capex per well.
