Ecopetrol unit in Colombia natural gas find
Hocol, a subsidiary of Colombian state oil company Ecopetrol, has discovered natural gas at its onshore Arrecife field in the northwest of the country.
In a statement, Ecopetrol said the Arrecife-1ST well produced up to 10Mf3/d (283,000m3/d) during initial testing. Part of the VIM-8 contract in the Pueblo Nuevo area of Córdoba department, the well was drilled to a final depth of 3,020m.
Hocol will analyze results of the drilling campaign before conducting advanced production tests "in the coming months," according to Ecopetrol.
"This discovery leverages the exploratory strategy of Hocol and the Ecopetrol group, which continues to strengthen its position as a gas producer in northern Colombia," Hocol president Rafael Guzmán said.
