DHIBM-2 Hibiscus Extension well did not encounter hydrocarbons in the target Gamba reservoir.
The Borr Norve jackup rig, currently drilling the DHIBM-2 well, has drilled through the main targeted Gamba sandstone in a structurally high position but logging results indicate that the Gamba is water wet and no hydrocarbon shows were encountered to date. The well will be drilled and logged to a Total Depth of 3,500 metres as planned. The rig will then move to drill the DTM-7H production well at the Tortue field, followed by another exploration well on the Hibiscus North prospect. The data acquired from the DHIBM-2 well will be analysed and integrated into the larger Dussafu model to further refine the extensive exploration prospect inventory.
