Predator Oil & Gas Holdings plc highlighted a total 64 metres of likely gas sands, including a likely gas reservoir, in the MOU-4 well due for rigless testing at Guercif, onshore Morocco.
INTERVALS
Results from NuTech‘s wireline log analysis and reservoir characterisation show from 519 to 713 metres TVD MD including the M1 sands with likely gas sands of 50m; and 778 to 879m, including the Moulouya fan and Lower Fan with 12m.
From 1139 to 1143m, including the top of the Jurassic carbonates, two metres of likely gas reservoir have average porosity 19.9% (maximum 20.6%) and average gas saturation 56% (maximum 73%).
JURASSIC POTENTIAL
Executive chairman Paul Griffiths added that the likely gas sands included some shallow sands not previously considered as potential drilling targets.
“The recognition by NuTech of likely good quality thin gas reservoirs at the top of the Jurassic carbonate is particularly significant in the context of the large Jurassic structural closure that MOU-4 was purposely located at the edge of, so as to successfully penetrate the primary pre-drill target which was the Moulouya Fan.
“Rigless testing of the Jurassic interval will be an important step in evaluating the significant Jurassic potential within our core area of interest.”
