OSLO, Norway – DNO says a new phase of development drilling is under way on the Bukha field offshore Oman.

Bukha is one of the Middle East/North Africa assets formerly operated by RAK Petroleum that recently transferred to DNO under an agreed merger.

A total of three development wells are planned on offshore block 8. The first well (West Bukha-5) should be completed this spring.

Another of the transferred assets is a non-operated stake in the Hammamet license offshore Tunisia. DNO is pursuing other opportunities in the country and has opened an office in Tunis.
