Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Geopark has tested appraisal well #5 Jacana in the Jacana oil field in Colombia’s Llanos Basin Block 34. The well was drilled to 11,467 ft and tested with an electric submersible pump in Guadalupe flowing approximately 2.5 Mbbl of 15.5-degree-gravity oil per day, with less than 1% water cut. It was tested on a 41/64-in. choke, and the wellhead pressure was 90 psi. Additional production history is required to determine stabilized flow rates of the well. After testing is completed, the rig will move to the northeast along the trend to Tigana Field. The #5 Jacana was drilled 780 m north and further down-dip of appraisal well #3 Jacana, which encountered oil in Guadalupe without oil-water contact. Bermuda-based Geopark has five more wells planned in the Llanos 34 Block before year-end.
