PROMISING SIGNS FOR OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION

AS NAINGOPO DRILLING RESULTS BECOME AVAILABLE

Encouraging Initial Results

ReconAfrica's Naingopo well has revealed a 50-meter reservoir with oil indications in the Otavi formation. Although this well might not be commercially viable, it marks a significant advancement in understanding the Owambo basin's hydrocarbon potential.

Promising Prospects at New Locations

The next well, Prospect I, shows more promise with all key geological horizons aligned within the structural trap, enhancing the chances of oil entrapment. The confirmation of oil presence in the Otavi formation at Naingopo reduces exploration risk for this and other nearby prospects, including those in Monitor’s PEL 93 such as our Lead 9.

Insights from Naingopo well

The well encountered a large structure in the shallower Mulden formation, but lacked a clear trap in the deeper Otavi formation, preventing oil from accumulating. This highlights seismic interpretation challenges, particularly with depth conversion, affecting oil migration and accumulation.

Regional Exploration Optimism

Success at Prospect I could boost confidence in similar structures within PEL 93, potentially impacting the entire exploration landscape in the Owambo Basin.
