ReconAfrica resumes work at Namibia KW1X as horizontal drilling nears
  • Reconnaissance Energy Africa restarted work at its KW1X discovery well in Namibia ahead of a planned horizontal flow test.
  • Flow-test samples from KW1X’s vertical test indicated thermogenic gas with maturity from late oil to early gas, with liquids potential.
  • Regulatory amendments were filed for a horizontal wellbore that could start in October, pending approvals, with flow testing to follow.
  • Angola soil sampling on the MOU acreage pointed to an active, thermogenic petroleum system with liquid potential, supporting follow-on 2D seismic in 2027.
  • Offshore Gabon 3D seismic reprocessing at Ngulu remained on track for completion by year-end, alongside a resource report and appraisal well selection.
