Alternate Symbol(s):  V.RECO.W.A | RECWF | RECAF

Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. is a Canada-based oil and gas company. The Company is engaged in the opening of Kavango Sedimentary Basin in the Kalahari Desert of northeastern Namibia and northwestern Botswana. It holds 90% interest in a petroleum exploration license in northeast Namibia and a 100% interest in petroleum exploration rights in northwest Botswana over the entire Kavango Sedimentary Basin. The Company's exploration license covers an area of approximately 25,341.33 square kilometers (6.3 million acres) and 8,990 km2 (2.2 million acres) in Botswana. The two licenses together comprise 34,325 sq km (8.5 million acres). Its conventional drilling program is focused on analyzing the rocks to determine if there is a working petroleum system in the Kavango Basin.

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Why only drilled to 6, 858 feet down?Okay, so, yes, the drilling effort hit/encountered all geological targets; which means, basically, that all the geological layers --- source rock, cap rock, reservoir rock, etc as they had anticipated from their data interpretation and mapping --- were encountered ... as more or less anticipated.

Beyond that, based on my experience, I would not read anything else into it ... either positive or negative.

Note: with modern seismic-stratigraphic techniques, and, in this type of basin, I would not consider this a significant challege; rather, OTOH, if they "mis-picked" some geologic horizons, and did NOT encounter such horizons as anticipated, that would suggest to me some very poor marks.

Other than that, we must keep in mind that this is a STRAT TEST --- it is NOT an exploration well; where, the PRIMARY objectives are significantly different.

Note: according to the PR, a few more STRAT TESTS are on order ... BEFORE, if at all, the company commences with drilling EXPLORATION WELL TARGETS.
