TransGlobe Energy Corp has announced a successful Jurassic gas/condensate test in Egypt’s Western Desert.

The North Dabaa 1X exploration well was drilled to a total depth of 14,740 feet and cased as a Cretaceous oil and Jurassic gas condensate discovery. Based on open hole well logs and samples, the well encountered approx. 8 feet of net oil pay in the Abu Roash formation and 23 feet of net gas/condensate pay in the Khatatba formation.

An average rates of 16.2 million cubic feet of gas per day (MMcfd) and 1,620 barrels per day (Bpd) of condensate was seen during the entire flow test.

The North Dabaa 1X discovery is located approx. 1.4 kms east of the company's newly awarded 100% working interest South Ghazalat concession which is awaiting government ratification.
