Otto success in Turkey
Posted: 4 June 2008
Otto flows gas from second well, Kuzey Arpaci-1 Edirne, western Turkey
Otto Energy and Incremental Petroleum reported that the Kuzey Arpaci-1 well has tested at excellent flow rates from a tested section of only 5m in the lower reservoir.
Highlights
- Kuzey Arpaci-1 flowed dry gas at a rate of 1.15 MMscf/d over the interval 462.8m to 467.5m at a stabilized rate of 1.15 MMscfg/d through a ½ inch choke
- Another, shallower reservoir section is also present in this well and will be available for future production
- This is the second confirmed commercial flow rate from the Edirne discovery wells.
Following the shut in period additional perforations will be added and the well will be flowed again and prepared as a future production well.
The rig will then move to test the Arpaci 1 well, which was drilled in January 2006, before the 3D seismic was available.
The partners in the Edirne Gas project are Otto Energy 35 per cent and Joint Operators Incremental Petroleum (55 per cent) and Petraco Energy (10 per cent).
