Horizon Oil Begins Production from China Well

MT Newswires Live06-16

Horizon Oil (ASX:HZN) said that the A9H infill well in China was successfully drilled, completed, and began production, according to a Monday Australian bourse filing.

The well is located in the WZ12-8 Mid field in Block 22/12, in the Beibu Gulf. It was drilled using the last slot on the WZ12-8W wellhead platform, targeting unswept oil in the WZ12-8 Mid field.

The well was completed with an electric submersible pump and downhole equipment to allow production from two reservoirs. The well drilled 159 meters of measured depth of horizontal oil in the primary U4 target that is being produced by the existing A6H and A8H wells, and also intersected 19 meters of measured depth of oil in the shallower U1 reservoir that was not previously produced.

Initial production is testing the U1 reservoir and was flowing at 372 barrels of oil per day gross on June 8. The U4 reservoir will begin production after the initial testing of the U1 reservoir is complete.
