BANGKOK, Thailand – Repsol and its partners have discovered oil with two deepwater wells in block 29 offshore Mexico.
According to PTTEP, both encountered good-quality reservoirs at locations 88 km (54.7 mi) from the Tabasco coastline.
The first well, Polok-1, was drilled in a water depth of 583 m (1,913 ft) and to a TD of 2,620 m (8,596 ft), delivering around 200 m (656 ft) of net oil pay. Subsequently, Chinwol-1, in 464 m (1,522 ft) of water and with a TD of 1,850 m (6,069 ft), had net oil pay of roughly 150 m (492 ft).
Results in both cases were encouraging, and the partners now plan to seek approval from the Mexican regulators for follow-up appraisal activities.
Wintershall Dea is the other co-venturer.
