Circle Oil Flows Gas from Morocco Well

Circle Oil on Tuesday announced gas flow from KSR-A well located in Sebou Permit, onshore Morocco.

The primary Main Hoot target interval was perforated from 1,817.9 to 1,826.7 metres MD and flowed gas at a maximum rate of 8.0MMscf/d on a 24/64" choke, the company said in an update.

The well will be tied back to the 75 percent owned Circle Oil pipeline from Sebou to the industrial area of Kenitra ready for production.  The well is approx. 680m to the west of KSR-11, for production line tie-back, and 1.12km west of the Ksiri sub-station. The production concession has validity through 2024.

The rig has now relocated to drill the Caid El Gaddari-13 (CGD-13) well, the final well of Circle's current drilling campaign.

The Sebou permit is a partnership between Circle Oil Maroc Limited (75 percent) and ONHYM (Office National des Hydrocarbures et des Mines) (25 percent).
