HOUSTON — APA Corp. has provided results from recent drilling operations on Suriname Block 53.
APA has completed operations on the Rasper well in the northwestern area of the block. The well encountered water-bearing reservoirs in the Campanian and Santonian intervals, and evaluation of the open-hole well logs and formation and reservoir fluid samples is ongoing.
The Noble Gerry de Souza drillship will be mobilizing to the next exploration prospect, Baja, in the southwestern corner of Block 53. Baja lies about 11 km northeast of the recently announced Block 58 discovery at Krabdagu and will test Maastrichtian and Campanian targets.
APA Suriname, the operator, holds a 45% working interest in the block, with Petronas (30% working interest) and CEPSA (25% working interest).
