"At TLP 101, the company carried out a physical inspection of the wellhead and found a significant amount of detritus material in the line that has significantly reduced production."

After completing a technical evaluation, Anglo African Oil & Gas has opted to use fishbones technology to stimulate and complete the Mengo horizon in TLP103. This technology uses multiple small diameter lateral jets or drills from the wellbore to penetrate the reservoir and encourage production.

At TLP 101, the company carried out a physical inspection of the wellhead and found a significant amount of detritus material in the line that has significantly reduced production.

The company previously opted to install a pump to improve production from the well, but currently looks to resolve the issue of detritus material. 

Anglo African Oil & Gas has also re-perforated TLP 102, which confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons and pressure within the shallower R1 and R2 horizons. 

By assessing data procured from a pulse neutron log before the re-perforation, the company confirmed the presence of producible hydrocarbons that requires further mechanical intervention to restart production.
