The well drilled through a thick sequence of Jurassic limestone of some 310m that appears to be gas-bearing with good gas shows, and up to 56% gas recorded at surface.
The company is in the process of completing the electric logs with initial results showing the reservoir has similar characteristics to other commercial gas wells in the area.
It is expected to test the well later this month, and an additional potential gas-bearing zone was encountered in the Cenamenian, which is also productive in the immediate area.
This well is targeting the unexplored east part of the East Komsomolsk structure that has not been produced historically.
Tethys is focused on oil and gas exploration and production activities in Central Asia with activities currently in Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
