Pancontinental awarded permit in emerging oil & gas province Offshore Namibia-Spotlight

Pancontinental Oil & Gas NL reported that the Kenya L8 licence operator Apache Kenya Limited (Apache) has secured the use of the deepwater drilling ship Deepsea Metro 1 to drill the giant Mbawa Prospect.

Apache is anticipating a spud date within Q3 2012, with the actual date depending on when the drilling rig is finished with its current operations.

The well is expected to take some 45 to 60 days to complete to a planned total depth of 10,662 feet (3,250 meters) subsea in water depth of 2,821 feet (860 meters), easily within the range of modern equipment.
