Dana to move forward with Nefertiti

摘要

DANA PETROLEUM HAS been given the go-ahead by the Egyptian government to further develop the Nefertiti oil field in the Gulf of Suez following the successful completion of an appraisal well. The Aberdeen-based oil and gas company, in partnership with INPEX, successfully drilled the exploration well Nefertiti-2X at the end of 2012. The well tested at a maximum stabilised flow rate of 1,850 barrels per day (bpd) with an electrical submersible pump (ESP), and the field is expected to produce around 2,500 bpd (1,625 bpd net to Dana) when it comes on stream in around six months.
