Shell is set to begin drilling at the Montu well in its West Delta deep marine concession in the Mediterranean Sea this month, the company said in a statement.
The Discoverer India drillship will drill 6k meters below the water’s surface, setting a new record as the deepest well in Egypt.
The well is estimated to have a reserve of 4.7 tcf of natural gas and will take five months to drill.
