SDX Energy strikes more gas in Morocco's Hoot formation

January 23, 2018

LONDON -- SDX Energy Inc., the North Africa focused oil and gas company, has announced that a gas discovery has been made at its ONZ-7 development well on the Sebou permit in Morocco.

The ONZ-7 well was drilled to a TD of 1,167 m, with 5 m of net conventional natural gas pay in the Hoot formation. The well came in on prognosis but reservoir quality exceeded initial expectations, encountering porosity in the pay section of 35.3%.

The well will now be completed, tested and connected to existing infrastructure. SDX expects to provide a further update on testing results in early February.
