Wintershall Dea has announced first gas from the ED2-X well in the East Damanhur block onshore Egypt. 


The German oil and gas company and its partners began exploring the East Damanhur block in the Nile Delta in 2021 and announced gas discovery earlier this year.


As the operator, Wintershall Dea owns a 40% stake in the licence.


 

Partners in the project include Egyptian Gas Holding Company (EGAS), INA, which owns a 20% stake, and Cheiron Energy, which owns a 40% share.


The ED-2X ST1 well is situated roughly 3km away from the Disouq field, where EGAS and Wintershall Dea are operating the DISOUCO JV and produce natural gas.


The well’s proximity to the Disouq field supported quick tie-back and gas production start, the company said.
