Jubilee Project, Ghana
Anadarko and partners announced a major success at the Mahogany-1 well in 2007, which discovered the Jubilee field offshore Ghana. Since that time, the partnership has drilled more than 10 successful deepwater wells in Ghana and has increased the Jubilee field's estimated resource range, which is now estimated to be between 600 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) and 1.5 billion BOE. Additional development, appraisal and exploration drilling on the block and adjacent blocks is ongoing, and first oil from the Jubilee Phase I development is expected in late-2010.
Wahoo Project, Brazil
Anadarko reported a resounding success at its first operated pre-salt discovery well offshore Brazil during the third quarter of 2008. In Nov. 2009, a successful appraisal well confirmed the main pay section in the original discovery extends at least five miles to the north. The initial discovery well confirmed more than 195 feet of net pay in an upper zone and an additional hydrocarbon-bearing zone deeper in the well. Drillstem testing, appraisal drilling and additional exploration drilling around the discovery are being carried out in 2010.
