Sound Energy’s well on the Tendrara permit in Morocco has reached final total depth. The well was drilled to a depth of 2,665 meters and 4 ½” tubing is being set in preparation for testing the well.
The company identified the TAGI reservoir starting at a depth of 2,535 meters MVD, some 12 meters structurally higher than that identified in the previous TE5 well. The company therefore believes it has successfully drilled the top of the structure, confirming the geological depositional continuity of the TAGI sandstones within the area.
Significant gas shows were encountered while drilling the reservoir and the full set of acquired logs will be now processed. The company confirms that a total gross pay of 89 meters has been identified.
The rig will now demobilize from the TE6 location and move to the already prepared TE7 site on standby. Immediately after demobilization, the company will proceed with the planned rigless operations to mechanically stimulate the reservoir followed by a well test.
