ENI appraises Mozambique field

Eni says it has successfully executed the appraisal campaign for the Agulha discovery, located in Area 4 offshore Mozambique. Area 4 is now thought to contain about 85Tcf of gas in place.

The delineation was carried out through the Agulha 2 well, drilled in 2603m water depth to 5645m total depth.

The well is in the southern part of the Area 4 Block, about 12km south of the Agulha 1 discovery well and 80km off the Cabo Delgado coast.

The Agulha 2 well, which is the 12th well successfully drilled in Area 4, proved about 25m of gas column in good quality Paleocene reservoir sandstones and confirmed the southern extension of the field, says Eni.

Eni is considering further exploration drilling in the southern part of Area 4 after Agulha 2.

Eni is the operator of Area 4 with a 50% indirect interest owned through Eni East Africa, which holds 70% of Area 4. The other partners are GalpEnergia (10%), KOGAS (10%) and ENH (10%, carried through the exploration phase). 

CNPC owns a 20% indirect participation in Area 4 through Eni East Africa.
