DNO Hayah-1 Exploration Well Comes Up Dry
DNO ASA, the Norwegian oil and gas operator, announced today the Hayah-1 exploration well in Oman`s onshore Block 36 failed to encounter hydrocarbons other than minor gas shows and will be plugged and abandoned.
The well, drilled in the Rub al-Khali basin in the southwestern part of the country, reached a total depth of 3,010 meters and penetrated the three target reservoirs, of which two had good reservoir quality.
DNO will incorporate the Hayah-1 well information into further evaluation of the block.
DNO operates Block 36 with a 75 percent operated interest; Allied Petroleum Exploration Inc. (APEX) holds the remaining 25 percent.
