It has encountered over-pressured gas with a c.40% net-to-gross, similar to that of Yamalik-1, with gas flows - all pointing to promising results. In addition, the well has encountered more naturally fractured rock than encountered in Yamalik-1 with increased gas levels recorded at the fractured intervals.
Drilling is continuing to 5,000m with an extensive set of logging and well tests planned. Operations are expected to be completed in January with fracking and flow testing expected to commence around the end of Q1/19. Inanli-1 is the final well to be funded by Equinor.
Devepinar-1 appraisal well is the next scheduled to be drilled following completion of Inanli-1.
