Petrogas makes first gas discovery in UK North Sea

Sunday, November 10 2024

Fossil Energy – Discovery

Omani operator Petrogas has announced its maiden offshore gas discovery in the UK North Sea following a recent drilling campaign.

Petrogas embarked on its drilling campaign in August, and said it encountered gas in the Baker well at UKCS block 47/3f-16.

Petrogas recently took on a 100% equity stake in the Baker well from Cornerstone Resources, after taking on a 70% stake in 2022.

The firm described the well results, which spudded on September 12, as significantly better than expected, with improved reservoir characteristics.

Offshore assets close to the Baker well include the Perenco-operated Minerva platform and the Spirit Energy-operated York platform.
