GEORGETOWN, Feb 15 (Reuters) - A consortium by
Canada-based oil companies Frontera Energy FEC.TO and CGX
Energy OYL.V will have results in a couple of months on a
promising well in Guyana that they began drilling in January,
the companies said on Wednesday.
The Wei-1 well follows previous drilling in the Kawa-1 well,
which allowed the firms to confirm the presence of light oil and
gas condensate at the Corentyne block off Guyana's coast.
"Drilling is going extremely well," Frontera's Chief
Executive Orlando Cabrales said during Guyana's Energy
Conference and Expo.
