Perforation Program Increases OML 18 Flows

Thursday, January 5, 2017

Nigeria’s OML 18 saw a production boost with the re-perforation of a well on the concession. According to San Leon Energy, the electric line operations acquired water saturation logs within a group of wells, and perforation of new producing intervals commenced based upon that data.

Reperforation operations on the first of these wells was successful and increased gross production to approximately 61,000 bpd.

The well has now been temporarily shut in to allow minor production upgrades and additional workover operations, and current gross OML 18 production is around 53,000 bpd. The reperforation program will continue to be implemented across a number of wells in this field in the coming months.
