SINGAPORE Valeura Energy has completed an infill drilling campaign at the Nong Yao oil field in the Gulf of Thailand.

This comprised four wells at the Nong Yao A wellhead processing platform, including three production-oriented development wells and one appraisal well.

Results from the development wells are so far in line with pre-drill expectations and all are now producing.

The appraisal well was designed to delineate reservoir intervals in the field that are currently not producing. Again, results were strong with the well delivering about 50 ft of new net oil pay over several intervals.

This should lead two to four additional development targets for a future infill drilling program.

Afterward, the drilling rig relocated to Valeura’s Wassana oil field to drill three production-oriented development wells. Upon completion, it will return to Nong Yao in first-quarter 2024 to start work on the Nong Yao C development.
