The National Oil Corporation NOC and Italy's Eni North Africa have announced a new gas discovery in offshore Block D, approximately 95 kilometers from the Libyan coast. The exploration well, J1-4/16, was drilled to a final depth of 10,458 feet. Tests of the Metlawi reservoir showed flow rates of 14 million cubic feet per second MMcf/mm³ in a 32/64-inch choke and 24 MMcf/mm³ in a 62/64-inch choke. This well marks the completion of the nine contractual obligations for offshore Contract Block D, as per the June 2008 agreement. This discovery follows recent announcements by the NOC of new discoveries by Algeria's Sonatrach and Spain's Repsol / REMSA.
