The company drilled the well as a single producer to a depth of 2,970m and the well tested for initial production at 1,096 barrels of oil per day.
Dragon Oil CEO Abdul Jaleel Al Khalifa said the company is on track to complete 13 wells within the 2011 drilling programme: 11 wells have been put into production with the remaining two wells to be completed in the next few weeks.
"By the end of this year, we will have completed a record number of wells, which will put us on course to exit the year at a production level of approximately 70,000 barrels of oil per day," Khalifa said.
