Sound Flares at Old Moroccan Well

UK-listed explorer Sound Energy said July 5 it has re-entered and flared gas from the old Koba-1 well at Sidi Moktar, onshore central Morocco, as part of its testing programme to see if exploration wells drilled by previous operators can produce commercially. The well, drilled at the crest of the Kechoula discovery,  is close to existing infrastructure and gas demand including the large scale Moroccan state-owned OCP plant that mines phosphates for fertilisers.
