Aiming the delivery of incremental production volumes in 2026 and beyond, Pharos Energy will be commencing a six-well campaign in Vietnam.
As well interventions and optimisation opportunities maintained production stability on both TGT and CNV wells, the company is now set to drill further infill wells and appraisal wells from these prospects.
Pharos has secured rig contracts for the drilling of three infill wells and the 18X appraisal well, targeting TGT’s western area. It is also planning the drilling of one infill well and the 5X-LI appraisal well to tap into the norther part of the CNV field.
Speaking of the company’s progress in Vietnam, Katherine Roe, Chief Executive Officer, said, "In Vietnam, we will begin an important and material six-well drilling campaign in the fourth quarter, with results expected in the first half of 2026. Preparations for drilling the TGT appraisal well 18X to unlock future upside are progressing well and, together with the planned CNV 5X-L1 appraisal and infill drilling campaign, are expected to de-risk additional development opportunities and drive production growth from 2026 onwards. On our exploration blocks 125 & 126, we have engaged with an independent third party adviser to conduct a formal process to identify farm-in partners. This process, together with the ordering of long lead items, provides optionality to pursue the long-term potential of these important exploration assets. The recent approval of a two-year PSC extension in June further supports this optionality."
