Max Petroleum Plc, an oil and gas exploration and production company focused on Kazakhstan, is pleased to announce that it has finished drilling the BOR-4development well in the Borkyldakty Field, reaching total vertical depth of 1,609 metres. The well successfully encountered approximately 31 metres of net oil pay across four Triassic reservoirs ranging in depths from 1,395 to 1,532 metres, which was in line with expectations. The Company plans to complete the well and place it on production as soon as practicable. The Zhanros ZJ-20 rig will now move to drill the BCHW-3 appraisal well in the Baichonas West Field.
