Masirah Oil achieves first oil from Oman well

The well was spudded on 26 December 2019 and is located in Block 50, 30 km offshore east Oman. The well came in as prognosed and confirms the updated reservoir model.

The Yumna 1 well has tested at a production rate of 11 843 stock tank bpd through a 1 in. choke, with a crude oil gravity of 42° API. The Yumna Field is being further appraised with an extended early production test.

Further data evaluation and testing will be done and the findings will be released when completed.

Dan Broström, Executive Chairman of Rex International Holding, which owns an 86.37% interest in Masirah Oil, said: “We are very happy with the successful results from the Yumna 1 well and are pleased to play a part in opening up a new frontier offshore, east of Oman. We expect the high level of activity to continue as we move forward in the block. We thank the Ministry of Oil & Gas in Oman for their support and help in this endeavour.”
