Results from the Jenein Centre exploration well
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
The Jenein Centre-1 exploration well at Jenein Centre in Tunisia has been
suspended due to an unsuccessful completion attempt on the first formation
tested. The well will be re-entered at a later date to complete the secondary
target of the well - the Ordovician formation. PA Resources has a 35 % interest
in the permit Jenein Centre.
Chinook Energy has announced that the Jenein Centre-1 exploration well, operated
by one of their subsidiaries, has been suspended following a completion attempt
on the Silurian Acacus Formation. A number of perforated levels in the Acacus
were evaluated. Some intervals were determined to be water bearing and others
seem to have been damaged during drilling. Data obtained during the test
operations will be evaluated to determine the extent of the damage and remedial
action will be carried out as required.
The secondary target for the well, the Ordovician formation, which is
prospective for gas and condensate, couldn't be completed and tested. The well
will be re-entered at a later date and a completion will be attempted on the
Ordovician formation. The existing well bore configuration does not allow for a
stimulation that will be required to produce the Ordovician.
The seismic shows a number of prospects and leads in the permit that will be
tested later by the operator once plans for further exploration on the block
have been decided.
Chinook Energy's subsidiary is the operator of the well with a 65% interest and
PA Resources has 35 % interest in the license.
