VAALCO Energy has contracted Borr Drilling affiliate Borr Jack-Up XIV for a campaign offshore Gabon during 2025-26.
This will comprise multiple development wells, appraisal/exploration wells and workovers, with options to drill additional wells.
VAALCO CEO George Maxwell said the associated projects should “deliver a step change in organic growth across our portfolio in the coming years.
“In Gabon, we continue to work with our joint owners at Etame on our shared goal of executing another successful drilling campaign designed to enhance production and add reserves...”
“We anticipate the program to begin in mid-2025 with the sequencing and exact number of wells yet to be finalized. We are planning on multiple wells in the Etame field, multiple wells at our SEENT platform, and a re-drill and several workovers in the Ebouri field to access production and reserves that were previously shut in and removed from proved reserves due to H2S [hydrogen sulfide].”
