Australia's Woodside finds indications of more oil off Mauritania coast
AFX


SYDNEY (AFX) - Woodside Petroleum Ltd said drilling at its Tevet-1 exploration well off the coast of Mauritania in West Africa have shown signs of oil and gas.

The company, about 34 pct owned by Shell, said wireline logs run from the Stena Tay rig drilling Tevet-1 indicated the presence of oil and gas bearing zones.

It said logging and evaluation, including pressure and sample collection, is continuing and results will be reported once that program is completed and evaluated.

Located about 10 kms northeast of the Woodside operated Chinguetti oil project now being developed, Tevit is the first exploration well in a current 100 usd exploration program off the Mauritanian coast which is targeting 1.3 mln barrels of oil in six new prospects.

Woodside owns 53.846 pct of Tevet-1 and is the operator. Australian listed Hardman Resources Ltd has 21.6 pct, Roc Oil, also listed in Australia, has 3.693 pct, BG Group Plc of the UK has 11.63 pct and the UK's Premier group of companies have 9.231 pct.

Woodside also reported the drill ship West Navigator, has run wireline logs indicating the presence of oil at the Tiof-3 appraisal well within the target zone.

The exploration and production company has said the Tiof field has the potential to be as big as the Chinguetti oil project which has gross reserves of 120 mln barrels of oil.

"Woodside Petroleum Ltd said drilling at its Tevet-1 exploration well off the coast of Mauritania in West Africa have shown signs of oil and gas."

So oil found there, and oil found here:

"Woodside also reported the drill ship West Navigator, has run wireline logs indicating the presence of oil at the Tiof-3 appraisal well within the target zone."
