The discovery is at one of 23 blocks in which a BP offshoot is hoping to get governmental approval to acquire an interest.
The find, announced by Reliance on Thursday, was at the CT-PR-DWN-2001/3(CYPR-D6) block which has an area of about 8600 square kilometers.
“The discovery well¿is located in a water depth of 1194 metres and was drilled to a target depth of 3815 metres and terminated in crystalline basement,” Reliance wrote in a statement.
“The well encountered multiple hydrocarbon-bearing clastic reservoirs in Late Cretaceous section.”
Drill stem testing produced 37 million cubic feet of gas and 1100 barrels of condensate per day.
“Another zone at a shallower level was established through [modular dynamic testing] sampling where gas and condensate sample was collected.
“Further appraisal activity is being planned to assess the extent of these reservoirs along this play trend.”
