Mzia DST Results Support Hub Development

Thursday, August 28, 2014

The latest results out of Tanzania have BG Group completing a second DST on the Mzia discovery on Block 1. According to BG the results from the DST further support a hub development to supply a potential onshore LNG project.

The DST on the Mzia-3 appraisal well  included sustained gas production at a maximum flow rate of 101 Mmcf/d, equivalent to about 17,000 boepd.

Sami Iskander, BG Group’s COO, said: “The excellent results from this latest drill-stem test further reduce reservoir risk, a critical factor as we progress design of the upstream production facilities and infrastructure. Also, the Mzia-3 DST, along with previous appraisal activities, supports our efforts to optimize the value of a development across our Block 1 discoveries.”
