The second phase consists of two wells, the first of which is KSR-19 which spudded on 18 November targeting the Main Hoot reservoir at an approximate depth of approximately 1,780 metres TVDSS. This will be followed by the SAK-1 well targeting a Guebbas reservoir at a depth of approximately 1,300 metres TVDSS.<\/span><span class=\"cx\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"cw\"><span class=\"cx\">Both wells are looking to encounter shallow, biogenic gas accumulations. KSR-19 is near to the Company&#8217;s existing infrastructure, thus enabling the tie-in to be completed quickly and at low cost. SAK-1 is a little further from the existing infrastructure, but will still be relatively quick to tie-in and, if successful, will open a new area for follow on drilling and further exploitation. The Company is utilising the drilling rig that was previously stacked in its yard in\u00a0Morocco, thereby incurring minimal mobilisation costs.<\/span><span class=\"cx\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"cw\"><span class=\"cx\">The campaign is expected to complete in December 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SDX Energy has commenced the second phase of its 2021 drilling campaign in Morocco, with the spud of the KSR-19 well.
