Panoro Energy found 20m of oil pay in a sidetrack to its earlier Tortue prospect discovery in Dussafu Marin PSC, offshore Gabon. The discovery well, Dussafu Tortue Marin-1 (3430m TD, 118m water depth), found oil in the pre-salt Gamba and Dentale reservoirs. The confirming sidetrack, DTM-1ST1, found pay in the Dentale reservoir southwest of the original well, but with better reservoir character. It is currently being appraised.
