PEMEX plugged and abandoned with non-commercial oil and gas shows the Pox 101AEXP ST new-field wildcat (NFW) in the AE-0007-2M-Amoca-Yaxche-05 (AE-0152-Uchukil) entitlement block during early-November 2019 after reaching a total depth (TD) of 6,989 m.     The results were reported by      the CNH in early December 2019.   It was a replacement wellbore      for the original Pox 101AEXP that encountered drilling problems. The      surface location moved approximately 50 m form the junked and abandoned      Pox 101EXP.        The      Pox 101AEXP was spudded on 17 January 2019 and the side-track in late-July      2019.   The      well had a proposed total depth (PTD) of 6,540 m and the primary targets      were the Cretaceous and Jurassic formations.   The      NFW was expected to traverse a 530 m allochthonous salt canopy at this      location to reach the objectives.   The      well was drilled by the âWest Titaniaâ J/U in a water depth of 94 m.   The      NFW is located in the west central area of the block approximately 6 km      east north-east of the 2003 Pox 1 new-field wildcat plugged and abandoned      dry after extensive testing in 2009 in the westerly adjoining      AE-0005-2M-Amoca-Yaxche-03 entitlement block.   The      drilling permit for the well was granted on 8 August 2018.   The      NFW has unrisked prospective resources of 109 MMboe.   SENER      awarded the AE-0007-2M-Amoca-Yaxche-05 entitlement block to Pemex 100%      through Ronda 0 on 27 August 2014 but expired on 27 August 2019 and      replaced by the AE-0152-Uchukil entitlement block on 28 August 2019. The      block covers a modified area of 792.23 sq km.
