Irish-founded Tullow Oil commenced its multi-well drilling campaign in offshore Ghana yesterday with the start of drilling of the first well at the Jubilee Field.
The company has previously announced that drillship Maersk Venturer has been contracted for four years, and is expected to drill four wells in total in 2021.
The drilling campaign is the first part of Tullow's 10-year business plan which it presented at its Capital Markets Day in November last year.
The four wells it plans to drill this year consist of two Jubilee production wells, one Jubilee water injector well and one TEN gas injector well.
