ReconAfrica is rigging up in anticipation of spudding the Naingopo well in the Kavango onshore basin on July 7, 2024.
All camp, rig, and equipment moves have been completed, and all significant equipment on site of the Naingopo exploration well has been completed.
Third-party service contractor teams are either on site or expected to mobilize to the site in the next week before the scheduled shutdown date of July 7, 2024.
On Prospect P, debushing and road access activities are ongoing, with significant civil works, including well pad construction, which is expected to commence next month.
ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough said operationally, things remain busy on site, and well-site construction and mobilization activities are being completed in line with our expected scheduling.
“Additionally, field operations teams are mobilizing ahead of well pad construction activities for Prospect P, which are planned to begin next month.
“This prospect is expected to spud immediately after completion of the Naingopo exploration well,” Reinsborough said.
The company says it is continuing with the farm-out joint venture process, which it expects to conclude soon.
ReconAfrica is engaged in the opening of the newly discovered Kavango Sedimentary Basin in the Kalahari Desert of northeastern Namibia and northwestern Botswana, where the company holds petroleum licenses comprising ~8 million contiguous acres.
In all its operations, ReconAfrica is committed to minimal habitat disturbance in line with international standards and will implement environmental and social best practices in all its project areas.
