RE:Drill baby, drillThe primary objective of the Upper Kesan sweetspot can be achieved with the drilling of a vertical appraisal well. Valeura has identified a location at Hanoglu-1 with a TD of 4,470 m.
The secondary objective (target) of the Lower Kesan sweetspot can be achieved by deepening the Hanoglu-1 well or an alternative vertical appraisal location to a depth of 5,000 m.
The latest single appraisal well cost estimate is approximately USD 14 million, which includes drilling to 4,470 m and stimulating and flow testing the objective formation. Valeura ties all wells into its gas infrastructure pre-testing and gas produced during the test is sold to their customers.
