Oil Search completes wireline logging at Taza 2 in Kurdistan
During the week, wireline logging operations were completed and a number of sidewall cores were recovered.
Mud losses have been encountered while preparing to widen the hole, in order to run a 5” liner.
The forward plan is to stabilise the well, enlarge the hole and install the liner prior to commencing the comprehensive testing programme as planned.
Taza 2 is located 10 kilometres north-west of Taza 1 and is designed to appraise the hydrocarbon-bearing intervals discovered by Taza 1 (Jeribe/Dhiban and Euphrates/Kirkuk Formations), as well as explore deeper Tertiary and Cretaceous targets including the Shiranish Formation.
The participants in Taza 2 are Oil Search with 60 per cent holdings, Total E&P Kurdistan Region of Iraq (Taza) B.V. with 20 per cent, and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) with 20 per cent.
