Apex International Energy Management LLC connected the Fajr-8 development well in the southeast Meleiha (SEM) concession in Egypt’s Western Desert to production infrastructure after the well tested at a rate of 2,440 b/d with negligible water. Production began May 8.

The well, the fifth producing well in Fajr field since the commercial discovery was approved for development by the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources in March 202, encountered 98 ft of high-quality oil pay in sandstone of the Bahariya formation.

Together with three producing Farah wells and one Mashreq well, total SEM production is expected to increase to 6,000 b/d from 4,300 b/d. All wells produce from intervals less than 5,000 ft.

Farah Petroleum Co. (PetroFarah), the joint venture operating company of Apex and the Egyptian General Petroleum Co. (EGPC), is operator at SEM. Apex holds 100% working interest in the SEM exploration concession.
