Egypt-focused SDX Energy expects to bring its South Disouq field in the onshore Nile Delta into production during H2 2018. On 12 April, it announced a gas discovery at the Ibn Yunus-1X exploration well, which it spudded on 26 March. It drilled the well to a total depth of 9,068 feet and encountered 100.8 feet of net conventional natural gas pay in the Abu Madi horizon. The company reported that “the well came in on prognosis but with a reservoir section that was of better quality and thicker than pre-drill expectations”.
