West Katakolo field as a key case

• The field was discovered in 1981. The producing layers are the Eocene-Upper

and Lower Cretaceous carbonates of a paleostructure, unconformably covered

by Plio-pleistocene clastic sediments. Estimated resources in place: 28-30

million bbl of oil and > 40 bcf of gas.

• West Katakolon oil field has been proven by 3 wells: WK-1 , WK-1A and WK-2

(1981-1982)

• Different production performance had been recorded:

• In WK-1a gas flowed from two layers in the Gas Cap with flow rates up to

11MMSCFD from each zone.

• In WK-2 oil flowed from two zones with flow rates between 1000-1400

bbl/day each.
