The onshore Colombia Oboe 2 development well is being tied in to the Jobo gas processing plant after being completed as a successful gas producer, Canacol Energy Ltd., Calgary, said Mar. 2.
In the VIM 5 block, the well targeted the gas-charged Cienaga de Oro reservoir sandstones 55 ft (TVD) structurally up-dip, and 600 m laterally displaced from the Oboe-1 well.
The Flauta 1 exploration well, which completed drilling in February, did not encounter commercial gas and has been plugged. The well targeted a 3-way fault dependent closure, with potentially stacked gas charged reservoir sandstones over the reservoir.
The rigs are now being moved to drill the Cañahuate 4 development well and the Milano 1 exploration well on the Esperanza block. Both are expected to spud the second week of March and will take 5 weeks to drill and test.
The wells are part of the company’s 2021 drilling program in which it expects to drill 12 wells (9 exploration, 3 development), all operated with 100% working interest.
