Winstar Provides Update on the Testing Schedule of its Silurian Exploration Well in Southern Tunisia (cnw)
CALGARY, Jan. 31 /CNW/ - Winstar Resources Ltd. ("Winstar" or "the Company") (TSX: WIX) provides an update on the testing of Chouech Essaida Silurian #1 Well ("CS Sil #1"), on its 100%owned and operated Chouech Essaida Concession in Southern Tunisia.
The Company is pleased to report that the extensive testing program on CS Sil #1 commenced today and should require a minimum of three weeks to complete.
There are five individual production test intervals within the Silurian Tannezuft and Acacus Formations scheduled for CS Sil #1, all of which were assessed using open-hole log data. The Devonian Ouan Kasa and T iassic TAGI Formations will not be production tested at this time duet o the complexities associated with the downhole testing equipment configuration.
Testing is designed to determine the fluid type, initial deliverability and reservoir pressure of each Silurian zone within numerous packages of sandstone. The Company continues to caution that open-hole log data i interpretative and that a comprehensive testing program is required o estimate better the technical reservoir parameters and productive capacity of the well.
