Perenco has successfully concluded a substantial 12-well drilling campaign at its Badila field in Chad. This strategic initiative significantly enhanced the operational capabilities of the field. Consequently, this effort led to a notable increase in regional oil output.
Campaign Specifics at Badila
The comprehensive campaign involved drilling various well types. These included horizontal wells, appraisal wells, and essential water-disposal wells. These diverse additions aim to optimize reservoir performance and manage associated water effectively.
Production Gains
This extensive drilling effort has directly boosted combined oil production from the Badila and Mangara fields. Output now exceeds 18,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). This represents a significant uplift in the company’s regional production metrics.
Next Operational Phase
Following the successful completion of the Badila campaign, Perenco has redeployed its drilling rig. The rig has moved to the Doba Basin. This relocation marks the commencement of the next phase of development operations in that area.
The completion of this 12-well program underscores Perenco’s ongoing commitment to developing its assets in Chad. This strategic investment not only increases current production but also sets the stage for future growth. The company continues its active role in the region’s energy sector.
