General Settings
Zarat Discovery covers the entire Zarat North Discovery area and a portion of the joint oil block.
The Zarat Discovery is adjacent to extensive infrastructure, and its proximity to the major ports of the cities of Sfax and Zarzis optimizes offshore operations.
The discovery straddles the border between the Joint Oil Block and the Zarat permit, which is held and operated by ETAP.
Fair to good seismic of 6500 km 2D and 1900 km² 3D covering the concession.
3 Exploration wells with 2 full reservoir cores (Zarat-1 & Zarat-2) and 8 DSTs
Gas column of 75 m (Zarat-1) and 49 m over an oil rim of 15 to 18 m (Zarat North-1)
High CGR of 85 bbl/MMscf
Available PVT data
Available CO2 sequestration feasibility study and Inert gases optimization study

ZARAT DISCOVERY DEVELOPMENT SCENARIO
Plan of development gas blowdown with early production scenario using Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU)
Membrane technology
Pipeline (Zap Luk technology)
Phase 1 : 3 wells (2 Crestal + 1 GOC)
Phase 2: 3 wells + 1 contingencies in case of well failure
Development in 2 phases
Nearby infrastructure provides ready access from ZARAT DISCOVERY to treatment and export facilities
