Kosmos Energy reported that the Yakaar-2 appraisal well has encountered approximately 30 meters of net gas pay in similar high-quality Cenomanian reservoir to the Yakaar-1 exploration well.
Development of Yakaar-Teranga is expected in a phased approach with Phase 1 providing domestic gas and data to optimize the development of future phases. It will also support the country's "Plan Emergent Senegal" launched by the President of Senegal in 2014.
Located offshore Senegal, the Yakaar-2 well was drilled in approximately 2,500 meters of water to a total measured depth of around 4,800 meters.
The Valaris DS-12 rig, working on behalf of the operator BP, will now move to the Orca-1 exploration well in Mauritania.
Partners in the Yakaar-Teranga gas project, located offshore Senegal, include PETROSEN, BP, and Kosmos.
