Project Profile
Location: Tanzania, Africa
Gross Reserves: Probable Mean Gas Initially in Place (GIIP) of 44 BCF of which 28 BCF booked as Contingent Resources (Best Estimate, 2C)
Production: 3,000 bopd
Start-up Year: 2015
The Kiliwani North Development Licence (KNDL) contains the Kiliwani North 1 (KN-1) well which is expected to produce at an approximate rate of 20 million cubic feet per day (equivalent to more than 3,000 barrels of oil per day) in first half 2015. KN-1 is close to the producing Songo-Songo gas field and new gas processing and transportation facilities to be commissioned by end 2014. Independently verified gross in-place un-risked mean gas resources of the well, computed by Isis Petroleum Consultants Pty Ltd, are estimated as 45 billion cubic feet. Construction of the 2 kilometre long pipeline from KN-1 to the new Songo Songo gas processing plant is expected to be completed in early 2015. In February 2015 pipeline construction has reached the well-head and tie-in is imminent, following which the pipeline will be pressure tested and gas sales. Solo Oil acquired 13% of the KNDL in February 2015 from Aminex, the operator of the project. A new reserves evaluation study took place on May 2015, estimating that the field holds Probable Mean Gas Initially in Place (GIIP) of 44 BCF (gross) of which 28 BCF (gross) booked as Contingent Resources (Best Estimate, 2C).
Gas production from the Kiliwani North-1 well in Tanzania reached 30 mmcf per day (approx. 5,000boepd) with stable pressure recordings at that rate. (July, 2016)
