SOLO OIL, Tanzania Test Results, Ntorya-1 flows 20 million cubic feet per day of gas and liquids
Solo today announces significant results from the flow testing of the Ntorya-1 well at its discovery in the Ruvuma Basin onshore in southern Tanzania.

The well flowed gas at a measured rate of 20.1 million cubic feet per day (equivalent to 3,350 barrels of oil per day) through a 1" choke, with an estimated additional 140 barrels per day of 48 degrees API condensate. Original reservoir pressure was indicated at 5,424 psi and only small quantities of formation water were produced.

The uppermost 3.5 metres of the gross 25 metre (80 feet) sand interval was perforated and the well was flowed on several choke sizes from 16/64ths to 64/64ths of an inch over extended intervals during the last four days with corresponding shut-in periods to acquire pressure build-up data. Samples were also taken for further analysis which with the pressure data will assist in designing a future development programme.

The successful testing will now be followed by a programme of seismic acquisition later in the year in order to gain a fuller understanding of the size of this discovery and to identify further drilling targets. An independent reserves report on the Ruvuma PSA, commissioned in April following the discovery, is nearing completion and the findings of that report will be issued shortly.

Participants in the Ruvuma PSA are: Ndovu Resources Ltd (Aminex) 75% (operator) and Solo Oil Plc 25%.
