Solid well results kick off the campaign

SDX Energy has announced two successful well results in recent weeks, with additional oil discovered in Egypt and more net pay found in its first Moroccan gas well than expected. The next six months are busy ones for SDX, with eight more wells to be drilled in Morocco to supply a high value gas market. Two wells will be drilled in Egypt to delineate its existing South Disouq discovery and two exploration wells will target prospects that could materially increase the gas resources. In addition, programmes at NW Gemsa and Meseda should materially increase production. Our NAV increases from 64p to 65p/share (increases in absolute terms are partially offset by foreign exchange movements).
