Kosmos makes discovery off Ghana

DALLAS – Kosmos Energy has encountered gas/condensate in the
Tweneboa-3 appraisal well offshore Republic of Ghana. The
Deepwater Tanto block well confirms the Greater Tweneboa
Area potential, Kosmos says.
Tweneboa-3 has two deviated boreholes to separate areas of
the Tweneboa field. The first leg was drilled to calibrate
the potential of an area that had a weak seismic response.
This leg encountered approximately 9 m (29 ft) of
gas/condensate pay. The well was then sidetracked 550 m
(1,808 ft) west, targeting an area of strong seismic
response. This second leg encountered a gross vertical
reservoir interval of approximately 65 m (214 ft),
penetrating net gas-condensate pay of 34 m (112 ft) in
high-quality stacked reservoir sandstones in two zones.
The Tweneboa-3 well is 12 km (7.5 mi) southeast of the
Tweneboa-1 discovery well. The Tweneboa-3 well was drilled
by the Deepwater Millennium dynamically positioned drillship
to a TD of 3,906 m (12,816 ft) in a water depth of 1,601 me
(5,253 ft).
Kosmos holds an 18% interest in the Deepwater Tano block. An
affiliate of Tullow Oil operates the block with a 49.95%
interest. An affiliate of Anadarko Petroleum Corp. has an
18% interest; Sabre Oil & Gas Holdings Ltd has a 4.05%
interest; and Ghana National Petroleum Corp. has a 10%
carried interest.

Ivory Coast crisis Exposes Ghana’s
diplomatic hypocrisy
Ghanaweb, Jan 9, Ghanadot
- Even if Prof. Mills disagreed with the resolution put
before the emergency meeting
in Abuja to oust Gbagbo by force and had aired his
reservation in private; isn’t it appropriate for the
President not to cast doubt on a meeting he attended and
a decision he personally endorsed?..... .More

Understanding the Present
Political Crisis in Cote d’Ivoire
Commentary, Jan 10, Ghanadot - That Alassane
Ouattara won the election in Cote d’Ivoire on November
28, 2010, is acknowledged even by his opponent, Laurent
