Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Anglo African Oil & Gas Plc, based in London, reported a hydrocarbon find at #103C-TLP at its offshore Tilapia license in the Republic of the Congo. Wireline logging confirmed a 12-m oil column in Djeno, proving a functioning reservoir in the Tilapia permit area with a 4-m transition zone from 2,396 to 2,411 m in a dolomitic interval with high shale content in a Lower Cretaceous Neocomien. The well was drilled to 2,683 m. Another test is planned at #104-TLP and is targeting Vandju and a possible sandstone reservoir in Djeno. This discovery brings the combined total of oil encountered by the well to an aggregate of 56 m across the identified horizons.
