Sunday, March 24, 2019

Algeria’s Hassi Bir Rekaiz is seeing some drilling over the coming months. PTT Exploration   & Production (PTTEP) plans to drill an estimated 14 wells as it launches the initial development on the concession’s cluster of oil fields in eastern Algeria.

PTTEP said it began working on the development after receiving approval in 2018 for a 25-year production period.

The company expects to see first production in 2021 at an initial rate of 10,000-13,000 bpd. Over the next four years the field should reach peak production of 50,000-60,000 bpd once the construction of a central facility and the drilling of a planned 139 wells are complete.

Field names are Semhari, Semhari East, Mouia Aissa, Rhourde Abadje, Oglat El Bachir, Sahane Bagas, Rhourde Rhorfat, Rhourde Terfaia, Bou Goufa, and Rhourd Ez Zita.
