Q11-B well spudded

Kistos (LSE: KIST), the low carbon intensity energy producer pursuing a strategy to acquire assets with a role in energy transition, is pleased to announce that Borr Drilling's Prospector-1 jack-up drilling rig has spudded the Q11-B appraisal well (Kistos 60%, Operator).

As previously announced, the Q11-B appraisal well is anticipated to take a minimum of 6 weeks to drill and test. Kistos intends to suspend the well for future use in a Q11-B development and has estimated 2C resources for this accumulation of between 67 - 155 Bcf net. These figures were independently audited by Sproule and will be refined following review of all the data from the forthcoming well.
