Westmount Energy yesterday said it has been informed by JHI Associates Inc that the Jabillo-1 well on the Canje block offshore Guyana reached its target depth without encountering commercial hydrocarbons.
Previously published information, as cited by Westmount, had indicated that Jabillo-1 was a circa 1,000 MMbbl oil prospect targeting a Late Cretaceous, Liza-age equivalent, basin floor fan.
According to West-mount, Project operator ExxonMobil will now switch attention to the Sapote-1 well, more than 100 kilometres away, to test the largest prospect to date on the Canje block.
