The Sinjhoro Block joint venture has made a gas condensate discovery at the Baloch-2 well in the exploratory zone of Sembar Formation located in District Sanghar, Sindh Province, Pakistan.
Baloch-2 well was spudded-in on February 24, 2024 and drilled down to total depth of 3920 m TVD in Sembar Formation as an exploratory effort by operator Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), with in-house evaluation and technical support from its JV partners Orient Petroleum and GHPL.
Based on the results of wireline logs interpretation, Drill Stem Test-3 in the Sembar Formation has tested 6.8 million standard cu ft per day of gas and 388 barrels of condensate per day through a 32/64” choke size at a well head flowing pressure of 2180 psi.
In addition to the appraisal and development of Baloch 2, OGDCL is proactively planning to re-enter existing shut-in wells and develop the full potential of Sembar Formation.
