Videocon Industries has informed that Anadarko Petroleum Corporation’s Atum exploration well has discovered another significant natural gas accumulation within the Offshore Area 1 of the Rovuma Basin. The Atum discovery well encountered more than 300 net feet (92 meters) of natural gas pay in two high-quality Oligocene fan systems. This latest discovery is connected to the partnership’s recent Golfinho discovery located approximately 10 miles (16.5 kilometers) to the northwest in the Offshore Area 1.
The Atum exploration well was drilled to a total depth of about 12,665 feet (3,860 meters), in water depths of approximately 3,285 feet (1,000 meters). Once operations are complete at Atum, the partnership plans to commence appraisal activities that are expected to be followed by a drillstem testing program in the Golfinho and Atum complex.
