According to information sent to Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE), the Maru Well was drilled down to the depth of 794 meters, targeting to test the hydrocarbon potential of Pirkoh Limestone formation, whereby sizeable reserves of gas have been found at Maru Well No 1.
The zone has tested 3.5mmscfd of gas through 40/64 inches choke. The discovery of Maru Well No 1 has opened up a new horizon at shallow depth which would likely be developed on seamless track basis and be placed on early commercial production, resulting in fast revenue generation for the joint venture and would add gas reserves to the hydrocarbon base of the country.
