Cameroon: Etinde, Bomono plans

Operator NewAge (African Global Energy) plans to spud the first of two appraisal wells on the Etinde permit in late Q2 targeting an additional 1-2tcf of gas. The first well, IM-6, will target the southern boundary of the Intra-Isongo Marine gas condensate field discovered by Bowleven’s IM-5 well in 2015. The main aim is to firm up the volume of petroleum resources in the field. Announcing its H1 results on 29 March, Bowleven said the gross contingent resources on a P50 (2C) basis of the various fields had been determined at 0.9tcf of gas with 95m barrels of condensate.
