LONDON, June 3 -- Circle Oil PLC will complete the CGD-10 exploration well on the Sebou permit in Morocco's Rharb basin as a potential gas producer.

The well tested 3.9 MMscfd from the Tertiary Lower Guebbas sequence on a 24/64 in. choke from 3.3 m of net gas pay perforated at 889.3-897 m. A secondary target at 847.5- 854.5 m with 2 m of calculated net gas pay is to be tested later.

The rig will start drilling the last well of the planned six-well drilling program on the permit northeast of Rabat. Thus far, Circle Oil has had four discoveries and good indications of gas in DRJ-6 well, to be tested later.
