Sound Energy well result highlights reservoir variability in Morocco
Sound Energy’s TE-9 well in the Tendrara Basin in Morocco has encountered poor reservoir in the primary Triassic TAGI target and the well will be plugged and abandoned. The well was the first in a three well exploration campaign and was testing the A1 structure around 25km to the north west of the company’s Tendrara production concession, with a mid-case pre-drill estimate 0.7TCF gas in place. Since 2016, Sound has successfully drilled and tested the TE-6 and TE-7 wells in the core Tendrara area around the TE-5 discovery well, however results from the larger step out wells such as 2017’s TE-8 (which encountered tight TAGI sands to the west) and exploration further afield in TE-9 have not been as encouraging.
