ReconAfrica reported hydrocarbon flow to surface from two Huttenberg formation zones at the Kavango West 1X discovery well.
Upper Huttenberg zone flowed natural gas with potential liquids immediately on perforation; samples sent to US labs for compositional analysis.
Vertical testing ended without measured Huttenberg flow rates due to equipment limits; upgraded surface testing gear procured for the next phase.
Next step targets an open-hole horizontal production test in upper Huttenberg with up to 1,000 meters of horizontal section.
Partners BW Energy holds 20% working interest; NAMCOR holds 10% carried working interest; KW2A appraisal well preparations continue.
