Cameia drill stem test disappoints (Angola) |
[ Time:2018-07-30 | Hits:473 ] |
| The Cameia #2 drill stem test did however confirm the existence of a lower interval potentially capable of high flow rates across the basin. This interval had not previously been penetrated or tested in the Kwanza Basin. The Cameia #2 well did confirm the presence of the same high quality hydrocarbon bearing mound reservoir that was penetrated by the original Cameia #1 discovery well. The test was done very well by a designed full bore DST tools string, all the tools perticularlly the key parts like ball valve and metering cartridge performed excellent. The results of this drill stem test have no bearing on the commerciality of the Cameia Mound Development Project and Cobalt is continuing to work with the Concessionaire to move this project to sanction.

The Diamond Offshore Ocean Confidence drilling rig is now in the process of temporarily abandoning the Cameia #2 well. The wellbore will be used as part of the Cameia Mound Development Project, which is expected to be sanctioned in early 2014. Following this operation the Ocean Confidence will move to and commence drilling the Mavinga #1 Pre-salt exploratory well located adjacent to and north of the Cameia discovery.
