The KHE-18 well encountered the second-thickest, true vertical net oil-bearing reservoir of any well drilled in the field to date after KHE-1.
The well encountered a 45.8m gross column of oil-bearing reservoir within the massive formation, with an average porosity of 20.2% and an average oil saturation of 86.9% over the pay interval.
The reservoir interval was flow tested and produced at a stable rate of 2,385 barrels per day of 26° API oil on a 32 / 64in choke setting at a wellhead pressure of 180psi over a six-hour period.
