Hanut-1X exploration well, based in South Disouq, Egypt, will be abandoned after not encountering gas-bearing sands. SDX will assess whether South Disouq should be impaired after the results. SDX anticipates 2021 and 2022 work programmes will be fully funded, ups 2021 capital expenditure guidance to USD26.5 million-USD28.0 million from USD25.0 million-USD26.5 million.
"The producing assets in Egypt and Morocco are performing well and we remain above our mid-point guidance for the year. Our drilling activities have yielded three successful wells in Morocco, all of which are now onstream and contributing to cash flow, and one at South Disouq, which is due to start up shortly," said Chief Executive Mark Reid.
