IRAI Asset Overview:
聽
The IRAI gas field is located in the Tucano Sul Basin, about 110km NW of Salvador, Brazil. IRAI is particularly attractive due to the shallow nature of the gas reservoirs, with producing gas zones ranging in depth from 220-825m across the field area. This, combined with the relatively high gas production rates seen in the field, with the EI-3 well peaking at >40,000m3/day (250 BOEPD) of gas, provides the Company with a unique opportunity to materially increase production and revenue generation at low rates of expenditure. Gas reservoirs at IRAI are of good quality, with an average of 13m of net pay and 23% porosity.聽
