Description

Botala Energy has spudded its first commercial production well, Serowe-3.5B, at the Serowe coal bed methane project in Botswana. The well is designed to deliver commercial flow rates and unlock the multi-billion cubic feet potential of Botala's 4,200 km² acreage. It serves as the principal production hub for the current cluster and follows encouraging results from a previous well, Serowe-3.3. The project includes a purpose-built dewatering network of four support wells to prime the reservoir for extraction. Data from this well will be used for a bankable feasibility study to determine commercial viability and reserve size.
