Abstract
Previously, the chance of significant reservoir in the Bir Ben Tartar/Jeffara formations is fairly low, unless naturally fractured as demonstrated by Ordovician quartzitic sandstone on the El Franig oilfield which lies north of the Telmzane Arch in Southern Tunisia. Recently, several wells tested gas and condensate in the vicinity of Sud Remada Permit (Dorra-1, CEM-1 and SEA- 1 wells). Recent wells (TT2 and TT3) drilled on Sud Remada Permit have found Bir Ben Tartar/Jeffara reservoirs with porosity values up to 25% and permeability averaging 10mD with 44API oil flow and development of the Bir Ben Tartar oilfield is underway.
