This upstream oil and gas exploration and production company focused on North Africa and the Mediterranean, is pleased to announce well AT-1, on the Isarene permit (Blocks 228 & 229a), Algeria, has been successfully tested at the Ordovician (Unit IV) zone at a depth of 1915m. The well flowed 11.4 mmscf/d of gas (13,451 cubic metres/hour) with a flowing wellhead pressure of 205 PSI on a 2" choke setting, and at a rate of 7.75 mmscf/d (9,144 cubic metres/hour) with a flowing well head pressure of 1458 PSI on a 32/64" choke setting. The associated condensate rates were 210 barrels of condensate/day on a 2" choke setting, and 233 barrels of condensate/day on a 32/64" choke setting. The well was tested under natural flow and was not fracture stimulated. Testing and sampling operations at the well have now been completed
