Valeura Energy completes Nong Yao infill drilling offshore Thailand

Valeura Energy Inc. has completed its Nong Yao field infill drilling campaign and recent increases in oil production. Valeura drilled two horizontal infill wells on Nong Yao oil field at shallow-water License G11/48 offshore Thailand, in which the company holds a 90% operated working interest.

The wells encountered 1,000 and 700 ft of net oil pay in their horizontal sections, respectively, confirming pre-drill reservoir simulation results. The wells have come onstream as oil producers at a combined initial gross rate of 1,350 b/d.

The Borr Mist KFELS Super B Bigfoot-class jack-up drilling rig is now at Manora oil field where Valeura plans to drill three wells aimed at increasing field production. Upon completion of operations at Manora, anticipated in early August 2023, the rig will move to Wassana field for the company’s five-well infill drilling program.
