Confirmation drilling July
Drilling on Namibia's Walvis basin to follow 3D seismic
Cameroon goes a little bit under the radar compared to some of its neighbours, but it has a very good stable government, and an excellent straightforward petroleum code," Asher said in a wide-ranging interview.
"So, we have all the advantages of one of the most prolific production basins in West Africa and we also have a very attractive, supportive stable regime."
Thali license
Tower Resources, which is also present in Namibia and South Africa, plans to drill its first appraisal well on its Thali license -- home to a historic TotalEnergies discovery -- in July or August, having contracted the Norve jack up rig. Tower holds 100% of the Thali block and recently saw its exploration license extended through February 2025
"The purpose of the NJOM-3 well is both to test the existing reservoirs that were already intersected by the original TotalEnergies discovery well, and also to test the other potential reservoirs on the structure. It is both an exploration and an appraisal well," Asher said.
The AIM-listed company is targeting 18 million barrels of recoverable contingent resources, and a further 18 million barrels of prospective resources in the south of the structure.
"The prize on this well is already substantial, and it will open the door to our then drilling three further wells [in Q4 2025]. We intend to bring all four wells into production at once, drilling all four from the same location but deviated into different parts of the structure including an extension of some of the reservoirs," Asher said.
"If all goes to plan, we could reach first oil by the end of 2025, subject to a follow-up rig being available and our getting the financing for the next phase of work in good time."
Asher said the company was using a production base case of 8,000 b/d. "That is a lot of production and a lot of cash flow immediately for the company, so would be quite transformational for us," he said.
