CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canacol Energy Ltd. ("Canacol" or the "Corporation") (TSX:CNE; OTCQX:CNNEF; BVC:CNEC) is pleased to provide the following information concerning its July 2022 natural gas sales and the test results of the Cornamusa 1 exploration well, along with near term drilling plans.
Realized contractual natural gas sales (which are gas produced, delivered, and paid for) were 197 million standard cubic feet per day (“MMscfpd”) for July 2022.
Cornamusa 1 exploration well tests 12.4 MMscfpd
As announced in June 2022, the Corporation completed the drilling of the Cornamusa 1 exploration well located on the VIM-21 Block operated by Canacol Energy Colombia S.A.S. with 100% working interest. The well encountered multiple gas filled sandstones between 6,010 and 7,514 feet true vertical depth within the primary Cienaga de Oro (“CDO”) sandstone reservoir target with average porosity of 21 percent. Following completion, the well was tied into the production facilities and tested. Following an initial clean up period, the well was flow tested for 29 hours at an average rate of 6.7 MMscfd. The final test rate was 12.4 MMscfd with a THP of 2244 psia and a choke of 27/64 in. The well was shut in for a build up period of 5 days, after which the well will be put on permanent production.
Forward Drilling Program – Claxon 1 exploration well and Canaflecha 2 development well.
The Corporation is currently drilling the Claxon 1 exploration well located on its 100% working interest VIM 5 E&P contract. Claxon 1 is located approximately 2 kilometers to the south of the recently announced Alboka 1 discovery which tested 33 MMscfpd from the CDO sandstone reservoir. Claxon 1 will target the same CDO sandstone reservoirs present at Alboka, and the Corporation anticipates that the well will take approximately 4 weeks to drill, complete, and test.
The other rig is being mobilized to drill the Canaflecha 2 development well located on the 100% working interest Esperanza E&E contract. The well is anticipated to spud in early August 2022 and is targeting gas within the Cienaga del Oro in the Canaflecha field discovered in 2008. The Corporation anticipates that the well will take approximately 4 weeks to drill, complete, and test.
During July 2022, the Corporation repurchased 86,632 shares at an average price of CAD $2.25 per share. Thus far in 2022 the Corporation has repurchased a total of 5,394,332 shares for cancellation.
