AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> ARA Petroleum Tanzania (APT) has set out a path to first gas at Tanzania\u2019s Ruvuma production-sharing agreement (PSA).<\/p>\n

APT\u2019s partners, Aminex and Scirocco Energy, provided updates on the new operator\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n

The companies will acquire 3D seismic on a 454 square km area in the second and third quarters of 2021.<\/p>\n

Plans for the Chikumbi-1 well will kick up a gear in early 2021, the firm said.<\/p>\n

APT was established in 2018 to accelerate the development of the Ntorya area.<\/p>\n

After the farm-in APT will hold a 50per cent working interest, become the operator and conduct a minimum work programme.<\/p>\n

The work programme consists of drilling and testing the Chikumbi-1 well, in addition to acquiring a considerable quantity of 3D seismic data.<\/p>\n

Once the data has been acquired and analysed, it is likely that APT will prepare a Field Development Plan (FDP) and after approval from the various authorities in Tanzania commence the development.<\/p>\n

ARA Petroleum said it looks forward to working with various bodies in Tanzania in an effort to mature this very promising asset at the earliest possible opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
