Nabrajah-5 DST-11B flowed at a stabilised rate of 5,800 bbls/day oil (38.6 API), 252 bbls/day water and 4,162 Mscf/day of gas from the Basement section between 2655m – 2985m.

The well was then shut-in on the 12th April for a pressure build-up prior to opening up DST-1B for a second flow period which was conducted under natural flow conditions without the support of an ESP (electrical submersible pump).

Initial flow rates were 2,812 bopd of oil (41.9 API), 153 bbls/day water and 3,054 mscf/day. The forward plan is to flow the well for approximately 6 hours and collect down-hole samples prior to terminating DST-1B.

Oil Search said Nabrajah-5 was a deviated well with a top Qishn S2 target location approximately 1,100 metres south of Nabrajah-4.

Interests are DNO ASA 56.67%, operator, Oil Search (Yemen) Limited 28.33% and the Yemen Company 15%, carried.
