RNS Number : 7639U Corcel PLC 27 January 2025
Corcel PLC
("Corcel" or the "Company")
Update on further activities planned by Operator at Tobias-13 and Tobias-14
Wells
27 January 2025
Corcel Plc (London AIM: CRCL), the pan-Angola-Brazil focused energy company is
pleased to announce that, through its subsidiary Atlas Petroleum Exploration
Worldwide Limited ("APEX"), it has been informed that the Block KON-11
Operator in Angola will shortly recommence intervention activities at the
Tobias-13 ("TO-13") and Tobias-14 ("TO-14") wells.
The results of this work will provide additional information relating
specifically to the TO-13 and TO-14 wells. Further details regarding these
operations will be shared in due course.
Scott Gilbert, Corcel's Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Although the
initial results from the drilling of the Tobias wells in late 2023/early 2024
did not yield the expected results, the Operator is confident on the potential
of the field. While the transformational value for the Company is expected to
be highlighted through the forthcoming seismic campaign targeting the pre-salt
and post-salt leads and prospects in our various blocks in the Kwanza basin,
the historic Tobias Field in KON-11 is an important opportunity for the
Company and we are eager to explore the field's remaining potential."
