RWE Dea Egypt extension

摘要

RWE Dea has found a further extension of the South Sidi Ghazy-1x discovery in the Egyptian Nile Delta. The extension follows the successful appraisal of the North Sidi Ghazy-1x discovery, which was made in August. The start of production from RWE Dea's Disouq project is planned for 2013. The SSG-1-2 well was the second to be drilled in the South Sidi Ghazy structure and reached a total measured depth of 9,295ft (2,833m). The well was drilled 1.3km northwest from the discovery and confirms the extension of the gas resources and the good Messinian (Abu Madi Formation) reservoir properties in a northwesterly compart- ment of the field, said RWE Dea.
